After ::R. L. Fishburn opened his music company in the spring of 1890, the first piano was purchased by James Pett in June, and in the next ten days four pianos and five organs were sold. R. L. Fishburn and Sons, a mercantile business, was started March 1, 1892, one-half block north of the Court House. In the spring of 1894 they purchased the two-story Rosenbaum Hall at 1st South and Main Street, remodeled it, and moved their business there in July 1894. Fishburn brought in performers and encouraged home talent, holding concerts in his store and elsewhere to promote musical interests, as well as the sale of instruments.Forsgren, p 93, and Kotter, p 17.
