THE SOUTHERN HOTEL
BALTIMORE, MD.
The Southern Hotel stands on the site on which once stood
the famous Old Fountain Inn of Colonial days where General
George Washington and his staff were entertained. It was
one of the best known hostelries in this part of the Country
and remained a land-mark until 1871. The following year
the Carrollton Hotel was erected on the site, being quite
up-to-date for the times and named after Charles Carroll of
Carrollton, the last survivor of the Signers of the Declaration
of Independence. The Carrollton Hotel was destroyed in the
great Baltimore fire of 1904.
