"This is the oldest building in Sedgwick, moved here from the former Park City site, 8 miles southwest of Sedgwick.  It is one of only two known remaining buildings from the original site of the 1870's.  It was originally a dram shop saloon.  After Park City lost its bid for county seat the building was moved to Sedgwick in early 1880 and was used as a drug store and doctors office.  Some of the doctors using the building were Drs. Mayo and wife, Goddard, Kanavel, Edward and Buley." A Bit of History Sedgwick was the first city laid out in Harvey County, having been surveyed and platted in the summer of 1870, by the Sedgwick Town Company and subsequently added to by Dr. T. S. Floyd.  Sedgwick was incorporated as a city of the third class, March 18, 1872.  Its first municipal election was held April 1, 1872. Early Sedgwick historians are undoubtedly right when they claim first in the county in many things--first school, residence, store, mill, jail, church and hotel, also newspaper. Sedgwick had a considerable population before Newton was started and did a fair business.  The town is pleasantly located at the confluence of Sand Creek and the Little river, occupying the point of land lying between the two streams and is consequently upon the east bank of the Little river and the west bank of the creek. 'Having been but little affected by the influx of the cow-boy element, it has maintained a steady growth, and today presents the appearance of a substantial and well built city, numbering more than 500 inhabitants.  Has a fine flouring mill, two or three elements, a large brick school house, several churches, two hotels and a large number of fine business blocks and private residences.  It is located in the midst of a fine farming country, is now one of the most flourishing towns in the county and from its location must ever be an important trade center.'
