Frederick K. Noblet, M.D., a practicing physician and surgeon of Holyoke, was also the proprietor of Noblet Drug Store. He moved to Holyoke in February 1896 to join his brother, Dr. Charles H. Noblet, who had moved here a few months before, and purchased the drug store of G.W. Guinn. F.K. Noblet moved to Denver in November 1903, selling his office fixtures to Dr. F.M. Means, who had just moved here from Thayer, Nebraska, to practice medicine. — Source: Phillips County Museum

Pictured from left, county commissioners Harlan Stern, Don Lock and Joe Kinnie are at the work site, where project manager Matt Brasby said progress on the foundation is ahead of schedule. Skarco Design of Burlington has been contracted for the concrete foundation, and Maverick Steel of Byers has been contracted for both the building materials and its erection.
