"In September 1855, the first publican's general license was granted to Alexander Mackay for a small shanty which he named the "Port Augusta Hotel". Alexander Mackay, one of the first pioneer settlers of Port Augusta, was a carpenter and builder. He was also the first mail contractor and later became local magistrate and civic leader."
