History

Simla appears on the 1912 Rand McNally map of Morrill County. Mud Springs, for which it was also named, was a stage stop from 1859, a Pony Express home station from 1860 and a telegraph station until 1869; Sioux and Cheyenne warriors besieged it on February 6–7, 1865. The station site was given to the state historical society in 1939 and is on the National Register.
