I've been wanting to post these pictures of a homestead where an auction was held here in Highland IL. The house had no running water not even a sink or bathroom in the house. There was a spring house several hundred feet from the home as you can see in the pictures. The water ran in the left side of the spring house then into a small bricked sump about 18" deep. There was a shelf on the left wall I guess where they put their clothes when bathing. The last son that lived there told some one he didn't want to spend another winter there. Sad to say he didn't die of natural causes a little over a year ago. The stove in the last picture was sold but I guess it was too heavy to carry out before the auction. The furniture was in excellent condition. Three generations of one family lived there. The Grandfather's immigration papers from when he came to the US from Germany were even sold at the auction. Hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I have.
