Auctioning a Town in Illinois Leaves Village Sold
John Bishop, long-time owner of Elizs, Tilinois, put the town up for auction on November M1, 1928, selling to five bidders for a total of $3. He says 16 hours a day for 20 years made him Eliza’s chief citizen and owner, then decided to rest as villagers face a general store, drug store, barber shop, pool hall, community building and homes. The piece also notes Oxford English dictionary work on the word simple and a playful “Believe It or Not” style inquiry.
