The Dolan House was built in 1883 and 1884 by Elijah Dow and George Peppin. Jimmy Dolan, one of the only participants of the Lincoln County War that survived, had 20,000 adobe bricks made for the house. The house consisted of six rooms and an entry way. All six rooms in the main house are the same size; 14 feet X 14 feet with 12 foot ceilings and 20 inch thick walls. At the back of the house there was a breezeway and then a separate building that served as the summer kitchen and dining room. There is a large porch on the east side of the house. The well was located close to this porch. The well is still there and is 50 feet deep and 3½ feet wide.

The machine is in the foyer of The Dolan House just inside the front door. Hours of operation: Friday through Tuesday 9:30 am to 3:30 pm. Up until June of 2011 the machine was located at the Lincoln State Monument Museum in Lincoln.
