The 1855 William E. Eaglesfield House east of Brazil, Indiana, will become an antique mall and weekly outdoor fleamarket site according to the April 2nd Tribune Star.

 

It is located right on the old National Road and on the National Register of Historical Homes. At one time, it was a watering hole and a rest stop. James Hoffa and Al Capone supposedly once ate here. (Perhaps Jimmy is buried out back somewhere.)

 

It has also been a personal home to several families, a restaurant, motel, and apartment house over its lifetime.

 

Keep on Looking for that Jimmy Down that Two Lane Highway. --RoadDog
