and the fire department.
Actually the story had its
beginning back in 1851 when
Gov. Frank J. Lausche visited
Caldwell on an inspection tour
of the Cleveland Graphite
Bronze Company plant during its
construction.
1t was at that time Gov.
Lausche was approached by
members of the Noble County
Chamber of Commerce with the
thought of making the old state
highway building on West street
available to the village of Cald-
well for a municipal building.
Gov. Lausche concurred in the
idea, and ultimately, with the
cooperation of State Representa-
tive Edmund G. James the prop
erty was decided to the village.
Upon its acquisition, the Cald-
well volunteer fire department
occupied the building along with
members of the village maintain
ance crew.
Realizing the imperative need
for a municipal building, inter-
ested citizens began to ponder
about ways and means to finance
