In 1829 an Illinois traveler with $1.00 in his possession received board and lodging during part of his journey because no one could change tis money. An account noted by the Illinois Writers‘ Project, W.P.A., says that he came down the river from Galâ€" ena to Quincy in a skiff, and from there set out on foot for his home in Edwardsville. He travelled as far as Carrolton in Greene county before he found a person with enough money "to break" his dollar. Another early traveler who had settled in Adams county in 1829 once related that he had made the round trip from Quincy to a point in Kentucky on 75 cents, "and didn‘t sponge or beg."
