Albert C. (Albert Clayton) Beckwith <http://www.ebooksread.com/authors-eng/albert-c-albert-clayton-beckwith.shtml>. History of Walworth county, Wisconsin .. (Volume 1) In 1846 Horace Duryee, a shoemaker, built a new house, long known as the Delavan House, or "white hotel." His capital was said to have been "a black sheepskin and a side of sole-leather." He let his house to Ward Mallory, who kept a well-ordered hotel for the next six years. Then came Hagarnan & Southworth, followed by Mr. Eaton. In i860 Chester W. Phillips became owner and landlord. In 1863 he extended it and raised it to three stories, and leased it to Mr. Hobbs, after whom came Greenleaf W. Collins. Edwin M. Strow bought the house in 1860 and occupied it till his death, May 20, 1893. Mrs. Strow continued its business until the great fire of that year removed an old landmark.
