The Bagley-Mullen House. Circa 1895. This site was, in part, formerly the location of three tenement houses known as Fox's Row. In 1892 Mr. Edgar M. Andrews, an undertaker and furniture/piano merchant, purchased the land and built this Queen Anne style home. In March of 1895 Mr. Andrew J. Bagley, an employee of the railroad, purchased the home as the original resident. In 1897 he sold the house to Walter N. Mullen, a bit of a medicine man known for his invention of the hornet's nest liniment". Mr. Mullen died inside the house in 1910. Descendants of the Mullen family sold the house to the Charles H. Litaker Insurance Co. in 1946.
