"New cars were all the rage in these years [1920's]. In one week [1923] Guindon Brother's Garage sold new Ford sedans to William Markhardt and A.G. Archer, new roadsters to Vernon Bridges and J.W. Rogers, new touring cars to Willaim Dey and Elmer Fisher and new Fords to J.H. Sudberry and the Dodds brothers. The next week Charles Nightinggale bought a coupe, John Nightinggale purchased a touring car and John Schill acquired a new sedan. After such an outburst of business, Guindon Brothers sold out to the Ocheltree Motor Company of Mitchell. John Ocheltree came to town as manager and Clara Krell was the new bookkeeper."
