BIOGRAPHICAL (Gervais Star 7 Oct 1927 1:2): "Was Bill Absent-Minded? In a hurry to complete his task so that he could get to the state fair last Friday forenoon, Wm. Allsup forgot to shut off the power after grinding some plowshares, locked the blacksmith shop and, with his better half, cranked up old Lizzie and hummed away for the fair. A fellow passing by noticing the door locked and the machinery running, gained admission and shut off the power."
