21st Annual Meeting of the Texas Veterinary Association

Located on the corner of Spence and Roberts Streets this was the second building used as a veterinary hospital. It was built in 1908 and had a central 36X36 foot clinic room, eight box stalls, four tie stalls, an office, feed room, janitors room and hay loft. The east wing of this building later became the anti-hop cholera serum Laboratory until a brick serum lab was built in about 1917.
