Ready To Retire Old Jail At Iola After 88 Years Of Use
Allen County prepares to retire its 88 year old jail completed in 1869 described as the finest in southeastern Kansas. Plans in 1958 call for a new courthouse with a modern jail. The structure, once central to county politics, has thick stone walls and iron cages, with several escapes recorded since its early use. A bill may transfer title to the Allen County Historical Society to preserve it as pioneer architecture open to the public.
