 Opfer's Livery Stable   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
From the domestication of the horse in ancient times until the advent of the automobile in the early twentieth century, horses served as the backbone of human transportation and industry and were bred for a variety of purposes.
As a result, most small towns featured at least one and often times two or three livery stables, where horses and buggies could be rented for an excursion out of town, or travelers passing through town could put up their horses for the duration of their stay.
Oftentimes Liveries were owned and operated by veterinarians or flsmiths who saw it as a logical expansion of their business.

In addition to renting out horses, wagons, and sleighs, the livery stable also provided a place for boarding horses, whether its owner was just in town running errands for a few hours or departing for a few weeks by train.
In other words, the livery served as a kind of parking lot for horses, where the animal would be fed, looked after, and kept clean.
Because it was such an important service for visitors, every hotel was required to have a livery stable or barn during the nineteenth century, where the public could leave their horses during their stay.

 Fort Steele Heritage Town - 8 - Geary & Doyle Livery Stable   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Just as the harness maker was central to the repair and manufacture of harness, and the flsmith to wagon repairs, so was the livery stable central to the care and maintenance of horses and the delivery of goods and services.
Soon livery stables were entering directly into commerce, contracting services for delivering goods, offering teams for construction, logging, and other heavy enterprises, and providing a network of rental and drop stations whereby a traveller could leave a horse at one place, travel by stage or boat, and rent another at a new point.
Under Doyle, whose word was his bond, the livery stable became, to a certain extent, a men's social club with a bottle of whiskey and a deck of cards waitingin the office.

 Billy Hands, Livery Stable, Winfield, Kansas 1873 - 1885
