Description Residence. Faull house. p. 29. Baker City Hospital, located on southwest corner of 4th & Estes.
The house was built as a residence in 1887 by James P. and Emma Faull. Faull had been a partner in P. Basche Co. After he died, his son, Carlton W. Faull, studied medicine, then returned to Baker City, where he practiced medicine until 1907. He turned the house into Baker City Sanatorium. In 1905 the sanatorium was managed by Drs. C. G. Patterson and W. J. May. (Dr. May also had the Radium Springs Sanatorium at Haines.)
The home was also the meeting place of the Minnesota Club. In 1907 the house was occupied by Elmer E. Dobbins. The house burned down in October 1908, probably set by an arsonist.
Today several residences occupy the lot on which the house stood, including the house of this archivist at 1515 4th.
