From the July 25, 2015, MidWeek (DeKalb, Il.) "Looking Back. News from 100 years ago.
July 1915.
The poorest main-traveled road reaching Sycamore is the road known as the State road which crosses Mayfield near the center and South Grove Township through the northern portion. That portion of this road for about three miles from Sycamore to Five Points has been macadamized and is in fine condition, but the remainder, which reaches a territory with which Sycamore has much business, needs prompt attention.
I believe this road is today's Il-23 and the area Sycamore did much business with was probably DeKalb.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
