How Arnott came to be

Arnott Train Depot

Arnott is the name of the new station in the town of Stockton on the Green Bay & Western Railway. It is located on William Plummer’s land, near Calvin Richmond’s, and will be a great convenience to farmers living in that vicinity. The new depot is already completed and trains now stop there. Cargill & Bro. of LaCrosse have built a large warehouse 30x60 and buy all kinds of farm produce. The farmers in that neighborhood, who will be mostly beneficed by this new market can thank Messrs. Arnott, Richmond and Bremmer, as it was through their energy that the depot was established. They canvassed the country and raised the required sum $500 for the company, together with one and one-half acres of land. The company has named the station ‘Arnott’ after the Hon. William L. Arnott, one of the prominent farmers of that town.
