History of Auburn

The first house was built by Judge John H. Harper, a double log house connected by a wide hall with shed rooms in the rear and a half story above which made a comfortable house and was afterwards used as a boarding house.

Judge Harper who was ever regarded as the pioneer and founder of Auburn was a man of sterling worth, full of active industry and enterprise. He procured a charter to lay out the town in which it was stipulated that ardent spirits were strictly forbidden.
