Skating Rink on Main Street

Update information from Richard O. Peacock:
In the photo showing the skating rink building, which was and is owned by my father, it shows a building attached to the skating rink on the south side. This was the old buttermilk plant which was flooded out in 1944. That building may have stood empty for several years thereafter, but was removed prior to 1950.
Also, due west of these two buildings sits a long, low-looking building. This building, during this time period was the original H.P. Gott Manufacturing Company.
