It was built four years before the Land Rush of 1889 by Rev. Sylvester Morris, a Methodist missionary to Indian Territory.
He was killed by lawmen who mistook him for a whiskey peddler. Morris was deaf and did not hear the authorities yelling at him to stop. His horses carried him home in his carriage.
