The old brick court house was built in 1837, and out of the materials left were built two residences. One. known as the old Clark house, stands immediately north of the railroad tracks on the east side of South Sixth street.
The other is the east half of Mr. Draper Babcock's residence. The bricks were made here and are almost as hard as rock. The Babcock residence was built by Justus Woodworth. It was two and one-half stories in height, had the entrance in the southeast corner and the stairway in the parlor. Mr. Babcock bought it in 1854 or 1855, and after the war remodeled it, adding the west half, which has made it a large and comfortable house. It is invested not only with the life of today, but bears the additional charm of having seen the city grow up around it.

The plans for the third court house were adopted at a special session of the County Commissioners held 20 Jun 1837. They were full and complete, everything that could be thought of as necessary too a perfect court house being distinctly specified, even too the "four turned columns after the Doric order of architecture" in the court room, and the Franklin rod on the cupola. The building was too front fifty feet on the Public Square and forty feet on Broadway, and too be built "under the direction of and superintendence of Alexander Turnbull, Esq., who will in person superintend each and every part and parcel of the work as it progresses, from first too last." The specifications required the completion of the work on or bef. 1 Dec 1838, and the payments were too be made in such money as is "current with the merchants in Warren county." When built, the court house had a south front, as well as an east one, but it was closed up years ago, and that part of the entry was thrown into the county clerk's office. The first floor contained offices for the county clerk, circuit clerk, sheriff and treasurer. Between the two offices on the north side was a stairway leading too the court room above. This was taken out some years ago, and entrance too the court room was then made by an outside stairway on the north side of the building. The second floor, in addition too the court room, originally contained two smaller rooms, used as jury rooms.

The contract was publicly offered to the lowest bidder 20 Jun 1837, and after crying the several bids it was let too Cornelius Tunnicliff for the sum of $8,998.00. The next day Contractor Tunnicliff presented a bond in the penal sum of $18,000, conditional for the faithful performance of his contract, and it was ac-accepted by the commissioners. Tunnicliff's sureties on the bond were Daniel McNeil, Jr., Justus Woodworth, George H. Wright, "Wyatt S. Berry and Mordecai McBride.

At the Mar term of the Court, in 1835, it was decided to have a new Court House, and a committee of three was appointed to prepare plans for the same. It was decided to have a frame building, the dimensions of which were to be 20 x 30 feet on the ground and one story and a half high. The contracts were let separately, to different persons, the entire cost to be $773. It was located on block 2,Z' ^"ts 5 and eight. Daniel McNeil, junior, was appointed to superintend its construction. It was never fully completed, and was only used about two years, or only until another building was erected. In Jun 1837, the County Commissioners made an order for a new Court House, had plans and specifications made, and closed the contract for its erection to Cornelius Tunnicliff, for $8,998, who was the lowest bidder. It was located in the Court-House block. Tunnicliff, after commencing the work, drew $1,000 as his first installment, and then absconded. The contract was turned over to his sureties, Daniel McNeil, Jr., Justus Woodworth, Mordica McBride and George H. Wright, who completed the work. It was received from their hands 14 Mar 1841, when they were relieved from their bonds. This building is still used by the county. Its dimensions are 40 X 50 feet, two stories high, with a stone foundation and brick walls. A large vault has been added to tlie building since it was completed, for the depository of records. The building is inadequate to meet the demands of the county and the advanced condition of the people, and it is expected that in a few years it will give place to a large, handsome and modern structure.
...
This jail, though strong in its capacity for holding prisoners, was not large enough to meet the demands of the rapidly increasing population of the county, and on 22 Mar 1839, the County Commissioners decided to build a new one. Specifications and plans were made out and submitted, and the contract was let to the lowest bidders, Messrs. Woodworth & Merrill, 19 Jul 1839, for $8,495. It was built on lot 6, block 10, and was completed and accepted by the County Commissioners, 27 Mar 1841.
...
At the next Conference, held in 1835, Rev. Justus Woodworth was appointed for this circuit. In Oct 1836, the Henderson River and the Knoxville Missions were discontinued, and the two Missions were formed into a circuit called the Knoxville Circuit, in the Quincy District, and Rev. Joel Harington was appointed preacher.

At a Quarterly Conference held at Knoxville, in Jun 1837, Thomas Jones, Justus Woodworth, Daniel McNeil, Alfred Allen and Jesse Coleman were appointed Trustees to build a meeting house at Monmouth.
