A remarkable public sale took place
at the farm of Oliver Votaw, near
Wright, Wednesday, October 5, when
In q little over four hours total, OF
sS,6i7.00 worth of property had been
disposed of and almost the entire
amount was paid in cash.. or this
amount $230O.0O was paid for hogs
and, S5,2S0.00 for horses. The sale
began at fifteen minutes past ten
O'Clock in the morning, stopped at
noon for lunch and started. again 0
little after one. AT three O'Clock the
last sale had; been made and record
ed, The crowd in attendance was
one of the largest gathered anywhere
this season and people were present
from many townships and several
counties. Col. Reed was auctiopeer
but he could not begin to handle the
crowd or the business. Col. Whitmer
and Col. Redburn from Fremont and
Col. Covey were on the ground and
assisted in the presenting of the
property and boosting the sales.
When the sale of the hogs was on
the barnyard presented a scene liken
ed to the floor of the Chicago wheat
pit in a panicky time. Buyers fell
over each other in the effort to have
their bids considered. They jumped
about the pens in their eagerness to
secure some desired piece of proper
ty. All tour of the auctioneers were
required to handle the crowd, so thick
and fast came the demands for the
property.
The following range of prices pre-
vailed

$500. = ..,-e TO- ,-.. ... g,

est and the biggest sale they had ever
attended. II was estimated by com,
petent judges that there were fully
one thousand people on the ground
when the bidding was at the boiling
point in the afternoon session. Fully
five hundred people were on the
ground when the sale was started and
they came from all directions from
that hour until two o'clock. 1t was
more like a big fair OF a stock meet
ing than farm sale. The total
amount of the sale was not as large
as some others have been, but the
stiffness of the prices paid and the
remarkable rapidity of the bidding
marks the sale as one without an
equal in the county. IA. 49,
