New Jersey St. This building was opened in 1910. According to its website, While we don't know why the name was chosen, our name was the first to not have Arabic origin. The founders chose the name of the son of an innkeeper in France who left theological studies at the outbreak of the French Revolution. His name was Joachim Murat (Mur-ah) and he became a general serving Napoleon in Italy and Egypt. He was so good he was proclaimed the king of Naples in 1808. In the Nubian Desert, there is also an oasis called Bir Murat the general visited often to refresh his soldiers. The Shriners still own this, but it is now known as the Old National Centre, an entertainment and event venue. 001529535 542__ $$fhttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC-NC/1.0/ 001529535 6531_ $$aRegional Buildings 001529535 6531_ $$aPlaces of Worship 001529535 6531_ $$aBuildings and Structures 001529535 6531_ $$aPhotographs 001529535 6531_ $$aRegional History 001529535 6531_ $$aRelated Materials -- 1901-1950 001529535 6531_ $$aReligion and Spirituality 001529535 655__ $$aColor Photograph 001529535 691__ $$aIndiana 001529535 7001_ $$aDe Wolf News Company 001529535 8564_ $$91e02d265-676b-466a-b0e1-203629a22bf3$$s1089556$$uhttps://library.usi.edu/record/1529535/files/3881.jp2 001529535 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1529535$$pGLOBAL_SET 001529535 914__ $$ap17218coll2 001529535 980__ $$aSpecial & Regional History Collection 001529535 984__ $$aAmerican Military History Collection 001529535 985__ $$aImage
