However, it was discovered that the poll book had been tampered with and the decision was fought in the courts with New Hampton being the eventual winner. The first courthouse there, a frame structure, was not completed until 1865. A four-room brick addition was built in 1876. The courthouse was destroyed in a fire on March 26, 1880, but the records were saved. The people in New Hampton contributed $ 5,000 for a new courthouse so as to keep the county seat in the city. The brick and stone structure was completed in 1881 for $ 10,500. It featured a clock tower that rose above the main

in 1854, and a log structure was built for a courthouse. One of the first functions in the new building was to move the county seat to the more centrally located town of New
Hampton, which was finalized in 1857. The following year people in the southern part of the county objected and suggested a

for about $ 134,000. Its significance is derived from its association with county government, and the political power and prestige of New
Hampton as the county seat.
