Marker Text:
In 1909 early day druggist F.J. Grayum built this Classical Revival style home with Ionic-pillared porches and balconies on the front and east side. The double masonry walls and two-inch thick floors show quality workmanship with solid brass hardware, eleven-foot ceilings, a coal boiler for heating, and a large attic. Rancher L.E. Long lived here for a time and D.P. Yoder, owner of the city light plant, raised his seven children in this home.
