Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 36, Number 115, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 October 1904 — BOUGHT A NEW AUTO. [ARTICLE]

BOUGHT A NEW AUTO.

As the result of the trip of Delos Thompson and J. J. Montgomery down to the Haynes-Apperson automobile factory, at Kokomo, last week, they went to Chicago Friday andon Saturday came back with a brand new automobile. It is of the same size, style and make as their former machine, but unlike ’that, this is entirely new, never having been run at all, whereas the other had been used a few months by a man who found he wanted a larger machine. They made the run down from Chicago Saturday in about 6 hours. This new auto is the one the Haynes-Apperson people had on exhibition at the recent Chicago automobile show, and is naturally a very handsome and finely finished machine. Its prevailing color is green, and it took quite a wad of the "long green” to buy it. It is, in fact a machine regularly listed at $1,450.
