A Century of Service
The new ELDRIDGE HOTEL is the fourth hotel to stand on the same historic site. In 1855-56 the Free State Hotel, erected by New England Emigrant Aid Society, was headquarters for free-state men. Was burned the next year by pro-slavery men. Eldridge House was built in 1857. Destroyed in 1863 when Quantrill barbarously raided Lawrence and massacred its inhabitants. Second Eldridge House was reconstructed immediately. Was razed in 1925 to make way for the present modern fireproof structure, which fully exemplifies the progressiveness of the Sunflower State. For an interesting look into early Lawrence history, ask to be shown the Eldridge House Room.
