There is something special about small towns and their central squares. While downtowns died in mid sized cities they seem almost unchanged here in the backwaters of the Midwest.
This statue stands in front of the Schuyler County Courthouse. It seems every courthouse or city of any size in Illinois has a monument like this in remembrance of the Civil War.
The picture below is of Dr. Russell Dohner. Sometime in the future he will be the subject of a blog post. All I will say for now is that you don’t see men like him anymore.
