How is traffic this afternoon?

As you can see in this image from the 1920s, traffic could get a little hectic in downtown Lawrenceburg in the days when cotton was king, especially not long after harvest, when cotton markets were sometimes held on the Square.

This image shows the north side of the Square, with the Mexican War Monument at right and the Toggery in the northeast corner. The word ‘toggery’ is a quaint old term for a shop that sells clothing.
