A very strange building that used to be a quite creepy looking Masonic Temple. It was recently cleaned up and is now a denture place, or something like that. South Bend, Washington.

Oysterville, Washington

The marker reads:

Pacific County was the third county in Washington Territory, and Oysterville served as county seat from 1855 to 1893. In 1875, taxpayers built a courthouse and jail at this location and it served for all county business until “South Bend Raiders” came here on Sunday morning, Feb. 5, 1893, and carried away the records. This first county owned building then served for two years as the Peninsula College.

The school was also known as Peninsular College, directed by August Bernhardt Louis Gellerman, who later ran for Washington State Governor as a candidate for the Prohibition Party in 1916. The actual building blew down in a storm in 1940.
