Hillsboro, a small county seat in north-central Texas, is the setting here, and its courthouse was the civic center of the town and the surrounding Hill County. The caption card carries a question mark after the courthouse label and no date, so the exact building and year remain uncertain. County courthouses like this one were often the most substantial structures in their towns, housing records, trials, and elections, and photographers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries frequently documented them as symbols of local government. The Wittemann Collection's old caption data should be read with that caution in mind.
