     "Mr. Sapp was born in Wyanet, June 15, 1866, and is the son of Andrew Sapp, whose birth occured in Kent county, Delaware, November 11, 1834." ...
"After mastering the branches of learning taught in the public schools of Wyanet, Elmer Sapp devoted a year to study in Knox college, at Galesburg, and one year to the mastery of a business course in the Davenport Business College, at Davenport, Iowa. For three years he was connected with the grain trade before turning his attention to the banking business, with which he has been identified as cashier of the Wyanet Bank since 1893. The bank was organized in 1877 by L. F. Houghton, and was then purchased by Isaac Phillips, who sold out to William and Elmer Sapp in 1893. The elder brother acts as president and the younger as cashier of the bank and they conduct a general banking and loan business. They now own and control a private bank, which is considered one of the safest financial institutions of the county because of the large amount of real estate of the very choicest kind which forms its security. There is probably no institution of the kind in northern Illinois that stands any higher in the confidence of the people than the Wyanet private bank. From the beginning Elmer Sapp has acted as cashier, and is a popular and accommodating official, of good business ability and keen sagacity. In the year 1900 they took up their abode in their present quarters, having a well equipped bank building, which they erected of brick, and stands on the corner of Main and First streets. It contains an absolutely burglar and fireproof safe and is complete in all of its furnishings. While giving much of this time to the daily work of the bank, Mr. Sapp also has other interests, owning two fine farms in Wyanet and Bureau townships, while he is also a partner in the ownership of the largest and finest store in Bureau county—that of H. W. Cate & Company." ...
"In his political views Mr. Sapp is an independent democrat. He has attained high rank in Masonry, belonging to the lodge, chapter and commandery, and to the Mystic Shrine in Chicago. Both he and his wife are members of the Methodist Episcopal church and they own and occupy a beautiful home on Main street in Wyanet, which was formerly the residence of his father, and which is noted for its gracious and warm-hearted hospitality, being greatly enjoyed by their many friends. Public-spirited, Mr. Sapp stands for all that is progressive in relation to the upbuilding and improvement of the town and withholds his aid from no movement that is calculated to promote the general welfare. He is also generous in his contributions to the needy and is ever willing to assist any business enterprise that promises for the benefit of the community. He is a worthy type of the enterprising American citizen of the present day, who carries forward to successful completion what he undertakes and yet finds at the same time the opportunity for practical assistance in those lines of activity which are of benefit to the community at large."⁵
