Work Description: 
The center and left sections of this building were built in 1884 as the first real home for the College of Medicine. In 1893 the Law School was started in the left half of the building which was named Kent Hall. In 1898 the right wing was built and the building was renamed the Medical Building. The entire building was torn down in 1955 when the Memorial Center was built, and this building stood between Hellems and the UMC. A dog and a wheelbarrow are at the right. At the far left is a low wooden shed which may be a part of the stands of Gamble Field. The electric wiring is Interesting. At the upper corner four insulators on a board carry down two circuits from two overhead wires. One circuit moves off to the right to the utility pole at the right corner of the building while the other goes down to two insulators above the left window in the right wing. It looks as though other circuitry may have gone down to the window below the wall mounted insulators The brick chimney from 1884 is starting to fall apart at the top. Date may be around 1910.
