On a flat stretch of Illinois prairie, where southern woodsmen first settled and crafty Yankees forged their frontier fortunes, stands an elegant Victorian mansion, completed in 1872 for Judge David Davis and his wife, Sarah.
Today, the splendor of their home, furnished with sumptuous English carpeting, expensive French glass, and rare Italian marble, gives opulent testimony to their life and times. In 1960, the house was donated to the State of Illinois; today, it is operated as a state historic site by the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency.
