Bancroft Livery Changes Amid Brokerage Auction
In Bancroft the Higgins barn stock and vehicles were sold at auction after T. H. Robertson rented the Higgins facility. Lattimer & Sons bought the business and lease the lower barn, while several local figures and visitors are noted, including medical staff arrivals, dancing with town auctions, and plans for county fair attendance.
