From the Logansport Daily Journal page 3 dated Aug. 27, 1882:
All the preliminaries for the extension of the Logansport branch of the
Vandalia railway
to Lake Michigan have been satisfactorily adjusted, and upon compliiance with a few
easy conditions the contact will be closed, and the work will be commenced and
pushed to completion.
Readers of the Journal are familiar with the route of this line to Marmont (Maxinkuckee),
and will have no difficulty in following it to South Bend and the lake...
With these advantages before them, our citizens are asked to consider one of the
conditions above named, which condition is that the right of way shall be furnished
free to the new line thorugh our county. The estimated cost of this right of way is
from $7,000 to $10,000 and it is proposed to raise the amount by subscription. A
consideraable portion of this subscription has already been secured, and a committee
appointed for that purpose will make an effort to raise the remainder during the
present week...

New Town Hall For Culver
Nelson Equip. Co. Building and Lots fire Purchased" Occupancy June 1
The purchase of the Nelson Equipment Co. building on Lake Shore Drive for use as a
new Town Hall was announced by the Culver,Town Board at its regular meeting on
Monday night.
Board President Ted Ervin said the total purchase price of $25,000 includes the building
which houses the Nelson farm equipment business now being liquidated, and two
vacant lots across the street, behind the Shell Oil Co. property.
The price of the building was $23,500, and for the two lots, which will be converted
to parking lots, was $1,500.
Possession was promised by June 1. though Maurice Nelson, the owner, indicated that
the building will probably be available to the town before that date.
Slated to be moved into the new quarters over a period of several months will be the
Fire Dept., Police Dept., Council Chambers, and Clerk-Treasurer's
The Fire Dept. will move first, the board indicated, since it can be accommodated with
a minimum of building renovation.>
Later, as space for the various departments is allocated and the interior of the
70 x 80-foot building is remodeled to these requirements,the other departments will
be moved.>
The present Town Hall on Pl ymouth Street will be taken over by the Street
Department as it is vacated by other departments, and the building presently
used by the Street Department will probably be sold. >
The present Town Hall has housed the town departments for at least 40
years, according to Ernest Carter, building commissioner, and a longtime
Culver resident. >
The building has been overcrowded in recent years, particularly the F i re
Department, which has added new and larger equipment...>
The purchase price for the new Town Hall will be paid over a
three-year period through financing arranged with The State Exchange
Bank...
