National Hotel (Fremantle) : ウィキペディア英語版 | National Hotel (Fremantle)
The National Hotel is on the corner of High and Market Streets Fremantle. Originally built as a shop in 1868, it was occupied by the National Bank in the early 1880s. When the bank relocated in 1886, the building became the National Hotel. == Original building == The site was originally occupied by a single storey shop in 1868 which was run in 1869 by Abraham Moise Josephson (who was later a successful pearl merchant).〔 Quoted in the Fremantle Library local history collection, ref. 728.5 National Hotel (M).〕 During the early 1880s the building was occupied by a branch of the National Bank of Australasia. In 1886 the branch relocated to a premises in High Street opposite Sandover's store. Later that year the building was converted into a hotel retaining the name as the National Hotel. The site and building was then owned by John J. Higham, a local merchant and businessman.〔 William Conroy became the first landlord of the National Hotel on 6 September 1886, but ceased this occupation less than a year later when on 24 June 1887 in the early hours of the morning he confronted Councillor John Snook outside the Fremantle Town Hall. Conroy shot Snook in the jaw, and Snook subsequently died three months later. Conroy was tried and hanged for his murder. In 1891 Higham sold the property to Mr. James E. Hagan. In 1895 the building underwent a major reconstruction, with F. W. Welford taking over as proprietor.〔 Quotes an advertisement in the Fremantle Register of 7 June 1895.〕
