Eighteen miles south of Sparta, on an elevation 700 feet above the county seat of Monroe county, overlooking one of the prettiest districts of farm lands in western Wisconsin, stands the village of Cashton. The land Avhere the village is located is on section thirty, township fifteen, north of range three Avest, in the town of Jefferson, and was formerly OAvned l)y Andrew Nelson and Hans Larson, the latter of whom is still living near the village.
One thing that troubled the people of Cashton very much during the first years of the existence of the village was the water supply. For a long time the only water works in the village were four barrels which were set in a small building near the depot, and Mr. P. R. Mitby was engaged to haul water from the railroad tank and from Jersey's spring, and the people went to him for their water. A little later Mr. Cash made a contract with someone to drill a well to furnish water for the village, and agreed to give a public square on the west side for a park if the well was completed, but it failed to materialize and so Cashton is still without her park, although there is now a sufficient water supply.
