The Sullivan County board and county attorney John W. Lindley weigh options for a new court house. A proposal would place a 20,000 square foot court on the present tract, sell 20 building lots at about 7500 dollars each to fund a 500,000 dollar structure, and finance via a 20 year bond without extra taxes. The current site, entered by Enoch Walls and deeded to the county in 1811, is detailed with historical deed records and a 1859 settlement involving Solomon Walls.
