Newspaper Deal Sparks Factional Ill Will Across Thirteen Publications
Friends of Frank J Mains and E E Hall report that the Democrat News and Record Crescent consolidation left sharp hurt feelings. The new entity promised space for reporters and printing work in the old offices but later redirected duties to the Democrat and News, leaving Mains and Hall with little more than a gnawed file as a symbol of the break. Other notes include multiple marriage licenses, a death in Evansport, probate filings, visits from regional residents, and CJ Thompson’s tenure as senior English publisher in Defiance County. A Bucyrus Presbyterian church closed to the anti-saloon league, deemed a political body, is also mentioned.

Frances Slocum Monument Dedication at Peru Indiana
Ten thousand people witnessed the unveiling of Frances Slocum’s monument at the Miami Indian burying ground near Peru Indiana. The life of the “white rose of the Miamis” spans from a 1777 capture in Wilkes-Barre to death in 1847, with adoption by a Miami chief and a later family reunion. The event drew the Slocum family and Miami tribe members. Dr. Charles E. Slocum delivered the principal address. Weather was fine and the ceremony drew wide regional attendance. Local notices mention staff changes at Findlay Courier and travel plans of Dr. Schiebley and family, with others visiting from Los Angeles and Europe.
