The springs, charged with large amounts of magnesium and sodium chloride, still flow, and most of the original spa's two-story frame hotel (now private) still stands. The town's name reportedly indicates the superlative pride of its founder, W. H. Hockman, who said when seeing the spring: "This caps the climax!" <BR/>-- quoted from MISSOURI ROADSIDES: THE TRAVELERS' COMPANION by Bill Earngey.ESDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08759157444118830066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25095032.post-15698429494663167402007-06-21T11:20:00.000-05:002007-06-21T11:20:00.000-05:00I see you had another talk with Margaret last nigh...I see you had another talk with Margaret last night.
