Physician Peter E. Richmond purchased this land in 1874 from Langdon and Pamella Bentley, in 1893 John T. Hidey built this balloon framed Queen Anne style home for Richmond, his wife, Anna and their daughter Imogene. Hidey also built the Indian Industrial Boarding School and other local homes. Richmond lived in this house until his death in 1910. Anna sold the house in 1915 for $4,700 to R.T. Kane, who later became Mount Pleasant's mayor.
