New Market House

The Marietta Intelligencer, June 22, 1859

Mr. Editor: The building I have erected on Greene Street in this city, for the purpose of a market-place, will be ready for occupancy Saturday, June 25th, 1859. The basement will be for meat-stalls, for which I shall make a charge. The first floor above will be furnished with suitable conveniences for a vegetable market (free of charge). The whole is furnished with gas light.

All persons living at a distance may deposit their produce in said room the evening preceding market; the door will be left open until 9 o'clock P.M. for that purpose. The doors will be open at 3 o'clock in the morning. The hour for selling will be regulated by the butchers. The meat0stalls will be sold on Thursday, June 23d, 1859, at 3 o'clock P.M.
