Fall of Bluffton merchant leaves $10000 in debt
In Bluffton Todany county the rural hardware dealer Witlan I. Allyn, once a prosperous trader at Poneto with $40000 yearly business, collapsed under debt. Notes were bought by ATheart Shepmers who misused funds, leading to liabilities including $1400 borrowed from Wells County Bank with Sipherd as surety. Shenandoah and Lambert debts followed, totaling about $10000 as others settled. Allyn relocated and denies intent to default, blaming wartime financial strain.
