The Hyatt House at Windom, so long and successfully carried on by Mr. Hyatt, has changed hands. The present proprietor is Mr. J. Warren, formerly of Reedsburg, Wis. Mr. Grimes, of the Windom House, who has always been considered the boss hotel man of the district, will have to look out for his laurels. However, if the wheat crop this year is only fair, from the immense quantity sown, there will be ample business at Windom to maintain two good hotels. There was never more grain sown there than this year, and the wheat is coming up vigorously and promises well for a bountiful harvest, if no peradventures come and destroy it. [Daily Globe. (St. Paul, Minn.), April 10, 1878]
