La Harpe is a town in Hancock County,Illinois. During the 18th century, French explorers headed by Bernard de la Harpe were forced to spend the winter just north of the present city of La Harpe. About 1896, four stone tablets dated June 15, 1715, inscribed in French were reportedly found a few miles east of the old fortification built by the explorers. Stones were translated locally by the only French family in town as follows: "We are surrounded by Indians and have no hope for survival unless help soon arrives." Said stone tablets were reported to be sent to the Smithsonian for authentication, and were ruled a hoax. Their whereabouts are currently unknown.
Soon after 1830, landowners in the area began to develop a town which they called "Franklin". In 1836, they applied for a post office and were informed another town in Illinois was already named Franklin. The first postmaster, Louis Rice Chaffin, suggested the name be registered as "La Harpe", for the Frenchman who spent the winter over 100 years earlier. The City of La Harpe was granted a charter by the Illinois legislature in 1859. The charter was amended in 1861 to change the size of the town, and the boundaries have changed through the years.
La Harpe is also home to the Calvin E. King House. On October 23, 1858, while campaigning for election to the U.S. Senate, Abraham Lincoln was a guest in this home.

New Carpet - Quincy, IL
After SERVPRO dried out our flooded basement, we needed new carpet and pad. So, we ordered it through them and used their installer. It was the best experience yet with carpet. Our last installer took a week and did a subpar job. SERVPRO's installer was done in one day and it was great. We have hired him again for a different home project.
