B1 ack The full front porch of this house has unfortunately been completely enclosed. Judging from the portions of the original design that remain, it is clear that this was originally a building of high architectural significance. The building is one of the numerous houses in the district built by local early 20th century builder, John A. Bartholomew, and bears the subtle yet unmistakable characteristics of his style. Austin 0. DeFrate, a clerk, and his wife, Frances DeFrate, were probably the last to live here before the house was converted to a grocery store in 1930. Harry L. and Eva B. Gustine were the first owners of the store here, and lived above it in the same building. By 1940, Harlie H. Wilson was running the store, then called "Corner Grocery. " In 1953, Mr. & Mrs. Cliff Cullen took over the market, and named it "Cullen' s Corner Market" . The Cullen's ran the store until 1974, when this last of the old corner markets in Bozeman closed and again became a house. The paved front lawn is today the only indication of this building' s former use. i Bibliography_ Application for Sewer Connection, 501-503 S. Black, October 1908, J.A. Bartholomew.
