Ok, so Jason Mazzone picked off the last building trivia question. Now it's time for yet another building trivia that's related to the preceding question. Given that we know the city where the last building is located this one isn't nearly as difficult. But still not easy by any means.
Then, when we get this figured out I will talk about the episode of extraordinary violence that took place very near here and the letter that talks about this building and the Hertford Academy (and one other building) that I used to find where a slave was shot by the Murfreesboro Guard, then beheaded in the wake of the Nat Turner rebellion. And I think I even have a picture of the intersection where his head was displayed.
The William Rea House/Museum.

You're exactly right! Congratulations!
OK -- later today or this weekend at the latest I'll put up a post about the Academy, Rea's Store, and the slave who was executed near these buildings in the wake of Nat Turner.
