Elyria in 1901 Stories and Early City Happenings
Elyria's 1901 pace is shown with the first Daily Chronicle issue on July 6 under J Burke as editor. Paving bids for West Avenue and water mains for West Bridge Street preceded new constructions including Devon Court Apartments and a major 100000 building project by Harshaw Fuller and Goodwin Co. Harmony Hall hosted Maccabee Band concerts. Dr Philip Reefy enforced street-work rules. East Avenue protests over noisy drinkers and a police- court response are noted, along with bowling league scores and upcoming horse races featuring Eximus and Eddie L.
