Hinds House. Charlie Hinds did well as a miner, and his experience and talents earned him positions of responsibility such as foreman and fire boss. These positions and salaries that went with them allowed him to build this residence, one much nicer than the average miner’s house, in 1914. He became Helena’s first mayor after the city’s reincorporation in 1917. (Contributed/City of Helena Museum)
