This photograph looks north and shows the library and Allen’s store beyond it on the left. To the right can be seen the Gilley house, the Harmon Block and a corner of the Park Theatre. The fire destroyed the Carroll building, the Holmes store, the Holmes Hotel (space at the left foreground) and the Odd Fellows building, which was rebuilt on its lot across the street.
