(With the optimism and faith typical of their generation, pioneers of Box Elder started work on the building only a dozen years after they arrived in the desert oasis at the mouth of Box Elder canyon.

Started in the early 1860s, It was built by men who worked with simple tools, because they had no others. With mfinite pains and labor native lumber was delivered to the site; men and teams going into the mountains for logs and stone. As stone was placed upon stone, stability and order arose, mans simple faith and labor now made manifest by a work of beauty.

It was estimated that the new additions gave them a building worth $25,000.
