My great Aunt Rosa and her husband Stephen F. Bennett built the Bennett house which
opened in 1910 across the street from the Fort San Marcos. The fire of 1914 burnt the
Bennett house to the ground.
They replaced the Bennett house with Bennett Hotel, which lasted till the 60tys.
A very happy ending to a very sad story.
