Hayes Hamilton shows in his book, “ Greene -County and Its Court Houses.” , - Dipping into the; county’s his­ tory the author finds that “ In spite o f all the repairs and addi­ tions 'to the third county court house made in 1875, it had be­ come quite dilapitafed by the year 1883. Aug." .24- o f that year the commissioners decided to call fo r a vote on the question o f erecting another court -house to cost around §125,000 ” ‘ A committee appointed to In­ spect the building reported It in bad condition.,' A part o f the roof had fallen in, and further ex­ penses were deemed: inadvisehle. Proposal Defeated A t .an . election held Oct. 8 , .1883, the proposal -to erect a new court house was voted down, every toownship in ’ the county voting against it. However, the city o f Xenia- voted,-fo r the ^measure. For 17 years the subject o f the new court house was not brought up fo r vote. During that period electric lights (called, “ lamps'” ) were .installed In the ofrie.es. o f the auditor' and treasurer, ekpense*. o f $1.50 per “ lampg^per month/ H^Uding .

Building Commission Judge Thomas E. Scroggy ap­ pointed a building committee con­ sisting o f two Republicans, John Little and Albert Wickersbam; and two Democrats, Henry Barber and William Ferguson. o John McGary razed the* old building at a cost o f $1,675, and nearly $ 1,000 was realized b y salvage.
