Mrs. Mary Peters has sold her hotel, the Eagle House, in Granton to Gustave Bergemann of Black Creek (Outagamie, Wis.). The papers were drawn up on Tuesday and Mr. Bergemann is to have possession at his convenience any time within the next 30 days.  The new owner is a young married man with a family consisting of a wife and three small children.  He has had six years experience in the hotel business and comes well recommended.  Mrs. Peters will spend the winter here if a suitable house can be found to rent.
