Looking Back Ottawa Herald century notes and memories
A century ago a fatal trampling death of a tramp near Wellsville, winter skating on the Marais des Cygnes, and New Year ball trips from Ottawa to Iola are noted alongside a Wellington murder verdict of Anderson Gray for hypnotism and murder. Fifty years ago Dorothy Lamour starred at the Plaza with Rainbow Island while Schoeppel began a second term as Kansas governor. Twenty five years ago Ottawa ice rink reopening and parking meter fines highlight nostalgia and change.
