From the August 17, 2016, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois) "Looking Back."
1916, 100 Years Ago.
"A Ford car came to grief this afternoon just north of the town of Elva. In some matter as yet unknown the machine turned turtle and is now lying in the bottom of the drainage ditch.
"Blood stains near the place indicate that someone was injured but so far the police do not know who it was as another autoist came along and took the party away."
Autoist? --RoadDog
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.
