The Levi and May Arkwright Hutton House, built in 1914, is listed on local, state and national historic registers. It is the final home of May Hutton. In HistoryLink.org essay 7547 by Laura Arksey, Ms Arksey states, "May Arkwright is probably the best known woman's name in Spokane History." May's story is a classic rags to riches story. After migrating to Idaho in 1883 with a group of former Ohio coal mining families, she worked as a saloon cook and boarding house owner in the Coeur d' alenes. She met Levi Hutton, a locomotive engineer, and soon they were married. She and Levi combined their earnings to buy a stake in the Hercules Mine. Photos of May in overalls suggest that she joined in manual labor, working the claim. In 1901 the hard work paid off and the Huttons became millionaires. In 1906 they moved to Spokane where May became a philanthropist, an important person in the woman suffrage movement in Eastern Washington, and an active figure in Democratic Party policies.
