Pages 91-95. The Ft. Worth Star-Telegram of Wednesday Evening, May 7, 1969 reports: "The firtst state historical medallion awared to a Granbury residence has gone up on the cream-colored house at 319 Bridge St. It is the home of Mrs. Frank W. Murton and was built by her late father, David Lee Nutt, in 1879." The article goes on to describe the 8 room home built of cyprus timbers and to present a history of it. (A copy of this article is found in the book.) The home came to be known as the "Nutt House." "About 1880 D. L. Nutt erected his present handsome home as a private residence; but as there was a dearth of hotel accomodations in Granbury, he subsequently built aditions to the original structure and converted his home into a public hostelry, which has since been maintained greatly to the comfort and satisfaction of commercial travelers and all others requiring transient homes. As host and hostess Mr. Nutt and his amiable wife are without peers as entertainers, and all who stop beneath the roof are made to feel at home. He is genital (sic) yet undemonstrative in manner, and there is a warmth of sincerity in his language and ways that ednotes (sic) the true friend. He has business qualities of the highest order, and the phenomenal success that attended the Nutt Brothers' business is in no small degree attributable to his able and conservative management. In 1864 D. L. Nutt regularly enlisted in the home guards, a military organization to suppress the depredations of hostile Indians, and was active in the service until the close of the civil war. He is a Mason of the Royal Arch degree, having been admitted to the Granbury Lodge in 1871." D. L. operated a grocery business and was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church in Granbury, TX.
