Glenvil Spelling

SOMEWHERE, NEBRASKA 
The town began as Glenville in 1882, but later people called it Glenvile, and then Glenvil, and as these signs show, no body in the Nebraska town could quite figure out the spelling.  This week residents petitioned a judge to call it Glenvil.  He said "Okay."  They said "No, no.  Glenvil!"  All right, he said, it's Glenvil.  and so the matter's settled . . . . . . until someone figures out a new way to spell it.
