A. H. Sniff of the News brought
over a copy of the Daily Times
dated March 81, 1892, today. The
Daily Times was only in swadd-
ling clothes then, not having
passed its first birthday. But few
of the people mentioned there are
now living here, the majority
having moved away, but several
have passed to their great re-
ward. We have a bound file of
each issue of the paper from its
first issue in 1868, and it is worth
a PERSONS time to go over the
old copies. The birth notices of
many of our leading business and
professional men are contained
therein, also their little boy and
girl parties; later their gradua-
|tion and finally their entry into
business. A wonderful life study
could be made of these volumes,
as they record life's tragedies and
pleasures for nearly fifty years.
