Wendover drew national
attention last fall when he
announced he was going to sell
the downtown area of Tioga, a
group of antique shops and a
mineral water bottling plant, to
the highest bidder.
The highest bidder in last
October’s auction was John
Grice of Houston, who bid
$200,000 on behalf of a group of
Dallas-area investors for the 14
buildings and six acres of down
town property.
But Grice, wanted by Hous

arrested after his picture
appeared in newspapers.

used for years in specialized
cases to preser ve food by killing
