Enterprise Incorporates and De-incorporates
The “old yellow hotel,” once located across Main Street from the Padgett house, offered accommodations and entertainment for the steamboat clientele at the turn of the century. Later, Mother Hattie Brooks took over the ground floor to house the first children in her home for orphans, among them Miss Doris Faber, who became the caretaker for the Thornby Estate owned by Dr. and Mrs. James Henderson Glass. The building was torn down sometime after the 1960s.
