         Mr. Dugan’s hotel was transferred to Alex. McGregor, then successively to Morton Bros., V. A. Bennett, Atkinson, William Platner, V. A. Bennett, and was used as a dwelling when it burned in 1873.

         In 1860, Alex. McGregor built a hotel, now used as a private house, on Lot 2, Block 3. About 1865, John Kelso built a hotel on Lot 1, Block 6, which burned down in 1869. The next hotel was a railroad eating house, north of the depot, Lot 1, Block 6, by Frank Riseley. It is now operated as the St. Cloud Hotel, by W. H. Bruns, having been moved north. In 1874, Raymond & Riseley built the large two-story railroad hotel (eighty feet in length), just south of the depot. It is now operated by J. P. Sackett.
