Pe Pendleton, both natives of North Carolina, who in 1823 came to the Hoosier state and settled in Wayne county, where they resided until 1830, when they removed to Madison county, where the father died in 1839, and the mother at the ripe old age of eighty-four years. The subject of this sketch resided in Madison county until about thirty-five years of age and then removed to Henry county, where he lived for ten years and in the spring of 1875 he came to Fulton county and settled in Richland township, where the residence was continued for nine years. He then moved to Rochester township and for the last five years he has been a resident of the city of Rochester. The life of Mr. Pendleton has been that of a farmer and in politics he has always been an earnest supporter of the republican party. In 1883-84 he was township trustee of Richland township and in 1894 he was elected to the same position in Rochester township. In township affairs his policy is to enforce economy wherever it is possible. Mr. Pendleton was united in marriage in 1853 to Miss Mary A. Richwine, who was born in Wayne county, Ind., and died in Fulton county, Ind., in 1878. Born of this union were nine children, the following six of whom are living: Dr. C. B. Pendleton, of Mechanicsburg, Henry county, Ind.; Clinton V., Charles A., a merchant of Richland township, this county; Nannie J., now Mrs. McClure, who resides in California; Warren D., and Franklin O. Mr. Pendleton is a member of the Masonic fraternity and one of the highly respected citizens of this county. [Elia W.

[Rochester Sentinel, Thursday, June 21, 1923] PEOPLES AUCTION COMPANY [Rochester, Indiana] See Sale Barn __________ BASTOW AND COPLEN BUY SALES COMPANY The Community Sales Company which has been under the management of Tom McMahan has been taken over by Ira Bastow, auctioneer, and Herman Coplen, cashier of the U. S. Bank and Trust Co. The new managers have rented the large barn on East Eighth Street and will conduct the sales on every Saturday. The name of the company from now on will be the Peoples Auction Company. It is the intention of Mr. Bastow and Mr. Coplen to make the local sales a regular bi-monthly event in the county. [Rochester Sentinel, Tuesday, July 18, 1922] [Adv] PUBLIC SALE, People’s Auction Barn, Rochester, Ind. Saturday, Feb 18, ‘24. - - - - Bring any property you have for sale! PEOPLE’S AUCTION CO. I. A. Bastow, auctioneer. H. L. Coplen, clerk. [Rochester Sentinel, Friday, February 15, 1924] PEOPLES SALES CO. SALES DAYS DATE IS CHANGED Ira A. Bastow, local auctioneer and a member of the People’s Sales Co. of this city, announced today that in the future all of the public sales of the East 8th street sales barn will be conducted on Wednesdays instead of Saturdays.
Pe The reason for this change, he stated, was so that there would not be two sales being conducted on Saturdays, has has been the custom for the past few Saturdays. The first sale under the new schedule will be held on Wednesday, March 29th, at which time livestock, farm machinery and miscellaneous articles will be sold at auction. Col. Bastow has been conducting community sales in this locality for the past 11 years. [The News-Sentinel, Saturday, March 25, 1933] PEOPLES AUCTION CO. MAY BE RE-ADJUSTED It was reported unofficially today that a refinancing project for the People’s Auction Co., of this city, was underway, with the re-organization details being conducted under the this city, and his father, Charles E. Coplen, of near Talma. [sic] Herman Coplen, head of the Peoples Auction Co., was reported to be in Indianapolis today on business matters. The company it was understood has been experiencing considerable financial troubles for some time and last week the Rochester man was detained in Kokomo to satisfy a check which the local company issued to Ross Hawkins, of Galveston, Ind. This check was reported to be in the sum of $157.00 in payment for livestock which was sold at public auction in Kokomo. The Galveston claim was adjusted Thursday, of last week. Those closely in touch with the People’s Auction Co. expressed the opinion that Mr. Coplen’s financial backing which was given to the now defunct Rochester Glove Corporation, once located in the building now occupied by the auction company, was indirectly the cause of the financial difficulties now being experienced by the auction company. A more detailed statement concerning the future of the public auction concern, which has conducted sales in Rochester for a long number of years, will probably be available from Mr. Coplen within the next few days.
