Fairgrounds in Hocking County Sold at Sheriff’s Sale
Hocking County ownership of the fairgrounds ended when the site sold Saturday at a sheriff’s sale to satisfy a mortgage. Othe I White of First Republic National Bank was the sole bidder, paying 10000 dollars. The Citizen Savings Association holds a mortgage of about 9600 dollars. Declining interest and lost receipts led to last year’s halt of the fair after half a century of locations around Logan.
