Greasy Slim, the town marshall, used to haul folks in the
City Jail for the night if they'd had too many to drink or
if they got unruly down in Peppersauce Alley down by
the train tracks. Today, you can visit the old jail and
have your photo taken. It's on your left just after you
cross the historic Walnut Street bridge.
The ghostly iron machinery at the right is a up that
mill. A railroad spur carried flooring out part of
the network of old metalworks that made up that
mill. A railroad spur carried flooring out of
Calico Rock during our heyday.
