Named in the 1909 county history

The history of Coshocton County was published 25 years after the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

On the 21st of February (Saturday), " the visiting band " of women, led by the venerable Mrs. D. Spangler (after frequent conferences among themselves, and direct or indirect conference with those who professed that " the secret of the Lord was with them;" and who, " knew that the Lord was in this movement," and that all the pains and toils would be light when the success was achieved), began their visitation of the saloons. The day was exceedingly stormy ; efi^brts were confined to pleading with those in the business to give it up. After some days, the prayer exercises were entered upon. Usually the ladies were allowed to come into the premises, the proprietor often, however, being out at the time.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Coshocton County, Ohio, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
