No signage, no windows, a front door with glass etched the words “Members Only.” The Anvil Club was a true Supper Club. Members paid annual dues to belong. In the days when fine dining was a rare commodity in far-flung villages and rural communities, Supper Clubs were sustained by those dues. Dues insured that top-shelf libations and gourmet meals could be enjoyed far beyond the big…
On the afternoon of April 29, 2018, 26-year-old Travaris D. Stevenson came from Chicago to Elgin for a drug deal. He and another man ended up shooting two men in the back of the head.

Mosser yesterday announced that Stevenson has been sentenced to 95 years of imprisonment in the Illinois Department of Corrections for the murder of Raymond Dyson and Mark McDaniel, both of Elgin. In November of 2021, a Kane County Jury found Stevenson guilty of the felony…

These include: Mark Carroll of North…
