View down Main Street looking east, 1895 (courtesy Jim Johnson, Chalmers Image of America, Grass
Valley.) Theo Wilhelm’s Empire Meat Market, 77 Main Street, is on the right side of this photo, just a
few businesses past Mill Street, which you can barely make out just past J.R. Tyrrell’s Feed Store (John R.
Tyrrell). Tyrrell is the father of James C. Tyrrell who lived next door to Theo Wilhelm and the boy that
Winifred Wilhelm married. The famous Holbrooke Hotel is on the photo's left, starting with where
a man is in the street. Note that all the buildings are brick after the earlier fire that destroyed the wood
frame buildings.
