This was the Wheeler general store until 1904 when it was given to the town and converted into municipal offices. Included for a time was the town jail. Since the jail was heated by wood stoves it was a reliable spot for a warm bed and was occasionally the scene of voluntary incarcerations on cold nights. The building dates to a century earlier when it was constructed by Daniel Packer and Jedidiah Randall.
