S. K. MYERS
S. K. Myers, the pioneer hotel-keeper of Lewis, came from Wisconsin in the fall of 1854. He had a wife and child. His child Lewis was the first born in Lewis, and was so-called in honor of the town. Mr. Myers was well liked by the towns-people, and kept fair accommodations for travelers at this hotel. He remained until 1856, when he went to Audubon county, where he was living at last accounts. He was tax-collector the last year he lived in Lewis.
