Belmont Nevada Ghost Town and the Vigilante Case
Belmont Nevada faded after a late nineteenth century boom. A two story brick hotel, the Cosmpolitan, and the Auger Hole Jail symbolized a once thriving camp. In 1874 two miners jailed, vigilantes broke in, dragged them out, and hanged them with ropes. The town declined as Tonopah rose, leaving brick mills and a fading landscape, with bloodstains and remains visible above the old jail site.
