Advertising Giants and a Church Disaster Echo Poweroy News
From the Poweroy Telegraph March 6 1860 an array of notices and items unfolds. Prominent merchants tout advertising as wealth’s prelude with quotes from Girard Ridgeway Astor and Humphry. Local governance bodies meet to hear exams, transfers, and bids. A fatal church collapse near Cincinnati claims thirteen workers, while new salt works and a Crowley firm open. Real estate transfers, jury lists, and cautions about bogus jewelry pepper the page.
