HORACE

NAME: Horace
COUNTY: Edgar
ROADS: 2WD
GRID: 6
CLIMATE: Cold, often snowy winters; warm, humid summers
BEST TIME TO VISIT: Any time
COMMENTS: Horace is located about 0.8 mi west of IL Route 1, 5 mi north of Paris
REMAINS: The major remnant is an old brick mercantile, though there are some other abandoned buildings in the area.
Horace has suffered the ultimate indignity: its name is misspelled on Illinois maps as "Harris"; it appears to have been a small farming hamlet. I have no additional information. Submitted by: Kurt Wenner
