Akron and Perrysburg Rail Road Proposal Stirs Medina County
Charles Olcott argues for stock subscriptions to the Akron and Perrysburg Rail Road, predicting strong profits, substantial land value increases, and rapid construction. He urges Medina County residents to take up shares by May 10, noting the project’s regional benefit, affordable cost, and the need for local funding over Philadelphia capital. He warns against speculators and endorses a single main line with connected lateral routes.
