View southwest towards the burning Lake County Courthouse and Court Exchange Bar on the west side of Harrison Avenue, Leadville, Colorado. Firemen with hoses spray smoking buildings. The two-story brick Courthouse has a low hip roof and central pavilion tower with convex mansard roof topped with Lady Justice engulfed in smoke. The bar next door is in ruin. Firecart wheels and a man in a western flat brimmed hat show in foreground.
