The Tescott Jail was made in 1914 by the popular jail company E.T. Barnum. It is a single steel cell with one pull-down bed. The city of Tescott listed in its end-of-year disbursements $132.13 for the jail cell. The jail was fortunately cared about and preserved in the City Park under an awning to prevent further deterioration from the elements. The jail is similar to that of Sylvia and Humboldt.
