G h o s t T o w n s a n d H i s t o r y P a g e 3 Once the center of town, we were all aglow. The parties, the drinks, the dancing and shows. We created memories that few could forget. As the years have passed, we mostly just sit. But our stories live on through tales and laughs, and forever captured will be our photographs. Adored by many for our structure and style, we're glad that folks still visit awhile.

Built by Jarvis Akin, the Hotel was originally a one-room building of hand-hewn logs. It was the center of Gallatin City's social life; travelers sometimes complained of not being able to sleep because of the ruckus. As the town died, the Hotel was turned into a barn; later, sections of it were torn down and carted away to be used elsewhere.
