This house was built in 1854 by circuit judge Amos Johnson. It is said to have gotten its name because it was rebuilt on the same property as his previous home that burned down. In 1861 Johnson sold the house to Hinds County Gazette owner and editor George Harper. The main section of this house is 1 story & 5 bays wide with a central hall plan. A Greek Revival and Mississippi treasure this home goes down as a significant part of southern history.
