		Built in the late 1700s, this unusual house was the home of George Reid, a merchant who operated a store near the Capitol.
		Records show that Reid served in the militia in 1775 and furnished guns to the American army in 1776.

		George Reid was a cartoonist's delight, although Deakin claimed that even a cartoonist could not do justice to his "immense, unwieldy, jelly-like stomach always threatening to break his waistband, his little legs apparently bowed beneath its weight, [and] his thick neck rising behind his ears rounding to his many-folded chin".
		Deakin later claimed that Reid, as a parliamentarian, was "inordinately vain and resolutely selfish, a consummate tactician even more cunning [than Henry Parkes] and if anything exceeding him in violence and variety of vituperation".
		But it was a flimsy alliance because Reid had no firm policy apart from waving the anti-socialist banner and securing the passage of legislation already before the House.
