in 1900, when two twelve inch
supporting timbers, which
through some defect in build
ing had been built into one of
the chimneys, caught fire and
soon spread through the attic.
$4,000 worth of damage was
done before the flames were
under control. The heavy roof
timbers bear the scars of this
fire.
In 1908, $2500 was raised by
public subscription to install
a clock in the tower, where
provision had been made at the
time of the erection of the
Court house. The clock served
about thirty years, was revamp-
ed in 1889, and finally replaced
by an electric clock in 1852.

GEAUGA COUNTY
COURTHOUSE AND JAIL

December 81, 1905, less than
two years after Ohio became
state, Geauga County was set
off as county, but not organ
lied. On March 1, 1905, the
General Assembly passed laws
erecting the county, containing
nearly all of the present coun-
ties of Ashtabula, Cuyahoga,
Geauga, and Lake. Cuyohoga
County was created in 1910,
Ashtabula in 1911, and Lake
in 184O.
The first court of the new
counties were held at New Mar
ket, a place located between
the present towns of Painesville
and Fairport. Here, too, the
Geauga County Commissioners
held their early meetings.
In 1903, before there was
any organization of Chardon
township, Samuel w. Phelps of
Painesville was appointed by
the Common Pleas Court of
Geauga County as Director to
purchase and lay out a town
plot for a permanent seat of
justice. At the second recorded
meeting held by the County
Commissioners in 1907, they
laid plans for place of con-
finement for the miscreants of
that early day. Abraham Skin
ner was hired "for to build OF
logs, hewed on two sides a
house twelve by fourteen
on the ground with good log
or plank floors and one window
with iron CRATES, with good
and sufficient chimney -
This to be Geauga's first jail.
A one-room log building was
erected in 1903 which served
as a temporary Court House.
A rude fireplace furnished heat
and a split stick and mortar
chimney completed this early
seat of justice.
The first building erected as
a Court House was built in
1913 at a cost of $500 on Lots
27 and %, on the southwest
corner of public square, being
back of the present Randall
Block. Samuel King was the
builder, appointed by the Com
miSSioners and required to give
bond in the sum of $1,000. Ex-
