From the Salida Mail 11-13-1885.
A real shame this building burned. 220,000 bricks were made for it and all of the mahogany wood work brought from Denver. There are various reports over the years of men admitted, usually after falls. A fireman fell from 247, 3 men fell from the coal chute at Sargents, etc.
