Biographical / Historical:
A Methodist church at the corner of Okmulgee Avenue and Cherokee Street (The Texas Road). In this building was signed the articles which established peace in 1883 between the warring factions of the Creek Indians, known as the Green Peace War. This building was long since torn down, and I do not think any other picture of it is in existence.
