Wood that a settlement was established on Four Mile Creek. It was first called Sugar Loaf, named after the mountain that loomed above the camp. On April 14, 1877, one hundred residents in the area chose a new name for the camp, Delphi, but the name was not used in the newspapers or county directories. During a post office location dispute in 1891, the people living on Four Mile Creek kept the Sugar Loaf name, while the families near the mountain's peak used South Sugar Loaf. In 1895, the creekside camp finally proclaimed its name to be Delphi, allowing the mountaintop camp to drop "South" from its name. In 1897, Charles W. Caryl changed the name to Wall Street. The camp name is often spelled as a single word, Wallstreet. Many mining cabins, the assay office, and the foundation of the big mill remain at this camp six miles up Four Mile Canyon.
