I am trying to reach Elijah Singley of Springfield Illinois but cannot locate his phone number on any venue. I am an old token collecting person he knew from Rosemont Illinois token shows and have information for him on a Green River Whisky Cup given out at the Pistakee Yacht Club races in 1909 that he has been searching for for many years. If he has contact with this e-mail or if you can reach him please have him e-mail me at berndt42@yahoo.com or call me at 815-385-7687 Chuck Berndt Mchenry Illinois
