No teacher shall be excused from attendance at such Teachers' Meetings as may be prescribed by the Board of Edu- cation, except in cases of emergency. 5. Punishment shall be reduced to the minimum in all schools. Let self-government be the aim and purpose. 6. Teachers shall give careful attention to the health and comfort of their pupils. They shall see that their rooms are properly warmed and ventilated. 7. Teachers are required to give earnest attention to the man- ners and morals of their pupils. 8. In case a parent comes to the school-room to complain, the teacher shall not hear him in the presence of the pupils, but shall respectfully hear him in private, and, if necessary, refer the case to the Superintendent or the Board of Education. 9. Teachers shall make themselves as proficient as possible in preparing for recitation of pupils. Be plain and practical. PUPILS. 1. Pupils shall be punctual and regular in attendance at school. They shall be respectful and obedient to teachers. 2. Pupils must be kind and courteous to all. In going to school and coming from it pupils shall be orderly, and must not disturb persons or property. 3. No pupil shall be excused from any regular study in the Course, without the consent of the Superintendent or teacher. HINTS AND SUGGESTIONS. The child who has learned to read is liberally educated. The spirit of the teacher is the all-important thing. Enthusiasm is contagious. It seldom happens that lessons are made too short, but they are often made too long. Put vim into your school work and school life will seem worth the living. Work leads to interest and interest is conducive to work.

Description An account of the resource [page 5] [corresponds to page 3 of Thompson Township Schools Course of Study Booklet] REGULATIONS The attention of parents and pupils is called to the following facts: 1. That without punctual and regular attendance little good can be accomplished. 2. That disregard of punctuality leads to careless habits of mind and diminishes a pupil's chances of success in life. 3. That tardy pupils fall behind in their classes. 4. That irregular attendance has a bad influence upon the whole school, but still worse upon the irregular pupil himself. 5. That the true aim and end of life can be gained only by prompt and earnest work. Teachers should remember that the text books are but aids, and they should use them as such. They should procure as many supplementary books as possible, and encourage the pupils them- selves to own them, especially those recommended in the Course of Study. A minimum average of 60% in any one branch, and a general average of 75%, or over, in all branches shall be necessary for promotion to the next higher grade. The teacher shall keep a permanent record of the standing of each pupil, and file the same with the Clerk of the Board of Education. Teachers are requested to give Literary Exercises throughout the course at least once a month. ORDER OF BUSINESS. 1. Roll Call. 2. Reading of Minutes. 3. Reports of Committees. 4.

Description An account of the resource [page 6] [corresponds to page 4 of Thompson Township Schools Course of Study Booklet] SUGGESTIONS ON THE TEACHING OF READING. During the first three years of school the pupil should be taught to read readily and with expression any selection that is ordinarily difficult; in other words, the aim should be to teach the mechanical part of reading rather than Literature itself, as the pupil is yet too young to grasp the thought and beauty of ex- pression contained in the writings of standard authors. The fourth and fifth years should be the transition period. The pupil has been trained heretofore in the how to read; now he should be led into the what to read--into the great field of literature. The sixth, seventh, and eighth years should greatly strengthen the pupil's grasp on standard literature. For if, at the close of his elementary work, a desire has been created in him for the best literature, his future is assured. At least one supplementary book should be read by the class each year. WRITING AND SPELLING. Daily practice should be devoted to both writing and spelling. In writing the aim should be to teach continuous movement and a plain, practical business hand. During the first years in school spelling should be largely oral, but both oral and written work should be given in the Intermediate and Grammar Departments. Careful attention should be given to the writing and the spelling in the written exercises on other subjects. ARITHMETIC. The two things most desired in Arithmetic are accuracy and rapidity. It can truly be said that they are co-ordinate.

For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Description An account of the resource [page 7] [corresponds to page 5 of Thompson Township Schools Course of Study Booklet] only way to secure these results is by constant drills in the different combinations of numbers in the processes of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The pupils must be made familiar with these combinations before explanations or analyses are attempted. Much time should be devoted to mental arith- metic. Business methods of computation should be introduced where they can be substituted for the processes of the schools. Much supplementary work should be done. ENGLISH. The aim in teaching Language, Grammar and Composition should be to train the child in the habits of Good Thinking, Good Talking, and Good Writing. GOOD THINKING--Keep close to the child's nature. The child thinks naturally about things per- taining to his own life--his environment. GOOD TALKING-- "Talk is cheap," but good talking can not be secured without good thinking. Direct the child's thoughts in natural, interesting chan- nels. GOOD WRITING--Good writing follows good thinking and good talking as naturally as day follows night. PHYSIOLOGY. To teach the proper care and development of the body and the mind should be the object in teaching this subject. Frequent talks on Physiology and Hygiene, together with the effects of Alcohol, Tobacco, Narcotics and Stimulants on the human system should be given by the teacher. Valuable suggestions for this work can be obtained from the International Course of Study of Physiology and Hygiene, approved by the Department of Scientific Temperance Instruction of the World and the National W.C.T.U. HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY. These subjects should be correlated as much as possible, especially in the seventh and eighth grades, as the history of a country very largely depends upon its geographical features. In teaching history particular stress should be placed upon the social, the political, and the industrial development of the country. In both these branches, collateral reading should be encouraged. 5 Title A name given to the resource Course of Study Rules and Regulations of Thompson Township Delaware County, Ohio Public Schools (p. 7) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/c5a7b12d4e022ca8019c020a6878966c.jpg b9fd4e9dad67e2d4ff31fe9a645b2d6c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Sabbath School meets every Sabbath morning & is kept up with increasing attendance interest. Young Peoples Society of Xetn Endeavor is held every Sabboth evg & the meetings are well sustained althugh the membership hitherto has been somewhat small. A Junior Society of Xetn Endeavor has been organized during the year & is already proving its value as a adjunct to the church. Its membership is 35. Both the Womens Home & Foreign Missy Society & the Kings Daughter Society are active in their several sphere of Xetn work. H & F Missy Soc hvg contributed over $60.00 to those objects & King's Daughters in addition to donating a sewing machine to a colored School in the South have been active in charitable philanthropic work. Contributions have been made to all the Boards of the church. We have been visited with a gracious religious awakening during the year. The labors of Evangelist E. F Walker of Indianapolis Presbytry Ind have been greatly blessed to us in the conversion of souls. As one result we have received into our membership 86 of profession of faith. Many of these (probably abt 35) came from the Sabbath School & Junior Endeavor Society but the members of the church also have been around to ren- ewed interest & zeal & greater harmony prevails than heretofore amongst our membership.

Description An account of the resource [page 62] [corresponds to numbered page 58 of 1st Presbyterian Church of Trenton Delaware County Ohio 1873-1937] 58 Narrative The year just closed has not been one of memorial growth with us & although we cannot point to any in- crease in our membership yet we trust there has been a growth of grace. Morning & evening ser vices have been held regularly throughout the year (with a very few exceptions in the evg. service when the roads were al- most impassable) & the attendance at both has been en- couraging. At the morning service our average attendance has been about 125 & the evening about 97. Prayer meetings held every Wed. evg. with an average attendance of about 58. The youth of the church is well represented at the services especially the Sabbath evg. service & prayer meeting. The attendance at the Sabbath School has been encouraging as has also been that of the "Junior" U.P.S.C.E Societies. The Womens Home & Foreign Missy Society has been active during the past year in their work on behalf of missions. Rewards of $63.00 has been sent by them to these Boards. A young ladies Circle of "Kings" Daughters has been organized during the year which, together with the previously existing Circle has been active in charitable & philanthropic work both in this neighborhood and elsewhere. The benevolences of the church have been well sustained, con- tributions have been made to all of the Board & these show a slight increase over the previous year. During the year we have commenced on some needed repairs to our church building & also on the addition of a Sabbath School Room. Already the Treasurer has real contributions for these purposes amounting to almost $700.00. The work is now well under way & we hope that before long we shall have a building better adapted to the needs of our Sabbath School & Congregation. A Special meeting was held in Feb in which we had the assistance of Rev. C.L. Work of Granville. The the attendance at the meeting was encouraging & we trust that the results though, not very apparent, have been real. E.J. Post Clk.

The Session of the Trenton Ch in presenting the Narrative for the year just closed would report that the work of this church has not differed materially from that of past years. Morning & evening Sabbath services have been maintained throughout the year with an ^average attendance of 85 at the former & 40 at the latter service Sabbath School & Young People. Meeting ((illegible) & Jun.) have likewise been maintained throught the year with encouraging attendance & interest. The Women's Societies ("H. & F. Miss Soc." & "King's Daughters") have shown commendable faithfulness & diligence in their work throughout the year although the offerings from the Missy. Societies have not quite come up to the ^high average of last year. The weekly Prayer meeting has had an average attendance of 25 throughout the year. All the Boards of the church have been remembered in our contributions. A slight falling off is noticed in one or two instances but this is accounted for by the fact that the Women's Missy. Society has not entirely equaled its former liberality. Five have been added to the church on Confession of Faith, three have been restored; six dismissed; & five placed upon the suspended Roll leaving us a net total membership of 139.

The continued exodus from the farm to the city has affected us- as it has all country churches - & a con- siderable extent. And yet ^in spite of this the work of the church has been carried forward throughout the year with faithfulness. The attendance at both morning & evening services is about as usual with an average of perhaps 90 at the former & 40 at the latter service. The Sabbath School & Young Peoples Societies (both C.E. & Jun C.E.) have been maintained & have come on their work with faithfulness diligence. The Missy Societies & the King's Daughters Circle have likewise been faithful. Their contributions have been up to the average (we think) of former years. The Weekly Prayer Meeting has been maintained with an average attendance of 18 or 20. All the Boards of the Church have been contributed to the amount being about the same as last year. Special services were held for 10 days commencing Mar. 3rd. In these services the pastor had the valued assistance of Rev. D.D. Biggs, D.D. (synodical Missy.)

As the infirmities of age increased he was less and less able to inspire its members to material and spiritual understandings than in former years. While we realize that Mr Condit made mistakes as all those who are leaders are sure to do yet we feel that his successes far outweigh his failures and that the church owes much to his efforts for which he usually received scant thanks. He was a faithful attendant of the various church services and thought the prayer meetings should be kept up even though the attend- ance be small, and it is with regret that we think of him as being no more with us but it is with thankful- ness that we can think that his departing to be with Christ is far better for him.

For a new and imposing Edifice, of increased proportions, in design, Yet permanently adapted the Christian worship Of an Enlightened an Zealous Denomination of God's People. Notwithstanding the somewhat unpropitious state of the weather on Sunday, that most acceptable day of rest, there was furnished a brief season of exceptionable enjoyment, morally, socially and religiously, for the good people of Trenton and adjacent townships. the occasion being the consecration of an absolute model sanctuary to the worship of the Almighty. The day had long been anxiously looked forward to by the Presbyterian brethren and their interest had arrived at its zenith on Saturday Eve. but only to be somewhat dampened by the dawn of a dull and showery morning, which, however, was such an inestimable boon for vegetation that they cheerfully waived personal inconvenience, and in goodly number rallied to the selected spot, for the day's observation. It is within half a mile of Condit Station, directly south, at the first crossing of the roads. Presbyterianism in Trenton It would be in keeping here, we may say, that as early as 1836 there were formed sufficient devotees to the good faith to secure the organization of a church. With such zealous work- ers as Alvin Condit, A. C. Fink, Robt't Lewis, G VanDorn, Silas Ogden and Alvin T. Condit, it is a small matter of surprise that we find a church erected and consecrated the following year, which though small, it will yet be clearly demonstrated, was ample to foster ad promote the interests and affections of a subsequent Church of gratifying proportion. In the humble Cot (for it was little more) the true teachings of Christianity fell like seed upon good ground, as we find 1866 a new and much larger church had to be provided, affording increased facilities for the prosecution of the noble mission in hand. Elated with their success in the past, and invigorated with unction from above in response to prayers that accompanied their sweet labors, they steadily pursued their noble mission to the dawn of last year. When it became evident that their ranks were filling beyond the capacity of their camp, under divine blessing, they again resolved to meet the exigencies of the hour, and as a result of their councils and a canvass for financial aid, in May last, the foundation of a yet large Church was laid with becoming cere- monies. the build committee entrusted with the supervision of the work was Messars. I. A. Pierson, H. Wheaton, L. S. Condit, Enoch Condit and E. Rice, who applied their united talents and energies to a nobel work that will stand a lasting monument to their Christian zealand devotion. For twelve long months was the work carefully prosecuted with a single eye to economy and the perfect completion of their task, and never were combined efforts more successfully directed.

The dimensions are about 51 feet by 33 and 21 feet high. Its acoustic properties are excellent and the method of ventilation by the side windows is perfect. From the sanctuary and by an external side door a commodious commit- tee room is entered, thus adapting it also to the purpose of a vestry. The interior woodwork is of ash and walnut. The seats being plain but exceedingly comfortable. The reading desk and minister's chairs, three in number, on the raised dias, are rich- ly carved in ecclesiastical designs. The several windows are of handsomely designed stained glass, each being surmounted in its curvature with a beautifully illuminated crown, anchor, sheaf, dove, bible tablets, grapes and other scriptural emblems. These are the workmanship of Mr. George Misch, an accomplished artist of Chicago. The floor and platform are very suitably carpeted and over the center aisle is suspened a brilliant 12-light glass chandelier with innumerable miniature prismatic pendants. the illuminating power is effective by night, under the rich lusture afforded by the sparkling glass, and the amber-colored lamps in contrast with the ornamented globes is charming to the eye by day. The interior of the church is also further beautiful- fied by artistic fresco work, after the latest designs, composed of soft toned blendings of various rich tints, throwing off a contrast most pleasing, yet chaste and in strict keeping with the purpose of the structure, wherein the presence of the Great Jehovah may be invoked. The seating capacity now secured will accommodate about four hundred persons, and right heartily pleased we are to record that the successful labors of the much beloved pastor and members of this zealous denomination are rap- idly increasing its actual membership, nearly half that number already. With this brief sketch of the church and its new place of worship, we proceed to report The Consecration Services At a quarter to eleven the major part of the seats were taken and upon the dias was seated their pastor, the Rev. R. Wylie, as also the Rev. N. S. Smith. D.D. of Delaware, and the Rev. A.S. Carson of Westerville, the latter being visitors to participate in the interesting services. The Rev. Wylie having opened the meeting with prayer, the choir of the church, which is peculiarly fortunate in its possession of naturally good voices, under the efficient and painstaking leadership of Mr. Smith Ketchum, sup- ported by L.S. Condit, sang that beautiful anthem, "Jerusalem, My Happy Home," with a spirit of enthusiasm well calculated to con- vey the beautiful sentiment of the composition to every Christian heart; after which Rev. Smith read the lesson for the day, and Rev. Carson offered up a prayer. An appropriate dedication hymn was then ably rendered by the Rev. Smith, whose attentive and deeply interested congregation had increased very largely by this time, His subject was on the unity of Christ with God, his pre-existence with the Father before the world, The wonderful and bountiful condescension of God, through the gift of His Holy Spirit in the Savior, establishing direct communication with Him- self. The beautiful teachings afforded by the life of Christ were most effectually set forth, and man's necessity of salvation, with its only method to be obtained, was dwelt upon with remark- able fevor, while he earnest implored that divine blessing might descend and ever remain on the people of Trenton, and that those who previously have gone home might awake to righteousness, and those who were still found living when the last trumpet shall be sounded may be caught up in realms of endless bliss. After the sermon, Rev. Wylie stated that the Cost of the beautiful building they now occupied amounted to $2888.96, of which $2842.50 had been subscribed, leaving only the nominal sum of $46.46 to be raised to clear the entire under taking.

As customary on such occasions, the "Old Hundredth" was adopted to the singing of the doxology, the ven- erable strains of which were heartily participated in by the whole congregation. In the Evening the weather having cleared off beautifully, the congregation, as was expected, numbered from four to five hundred persons from all parts. The choir opened the service with a fine anthem. "Doxol- ogy." After which old "Coronation" was sung by all present with heart and voice. The same reverend gentlemen who officiated in the morning were again present in the evening. Rev. Carson preaching a magnificent discourse from the 65th Psalm, 4th verse, which though exhaustive was listened to with marked attention by his audience, and deemed by all to be a most masterly argu- ment in support of God's Church. After an appropriate hymn, the benediction was pronounced by Rev. Wylie and thus ended a day long to be remembered in Trenton. We may add that to intensify the enjoyment of the day's pro- ceeding, it was also the eleventh anniversary for the Rev. Robert Wylie becoming the pastor of the little flock at this place, with whom he has labored most earnestly and sucessfully to the glory of God. He was the recipient of many congratulations, especially as Trenton was his first charge as a minister. His success has been so highly flattering and it was his privilege now to preside over one of the hansomest and most comfortable church buildings in this section of the state, while retaining the heartiest co-operation and prayers of his Flock.

To endless years the same. Under the shadow of Thy throne A thousand ages, in Thy sight, Still may we dwell secure; Are like an evening gone; Sufficient is Thine arm alone, Short as the watch that ends the night And our defense is sure. Before the rising sun. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come; Be Thou our guide while life shall last, And our eternal home. Amen. INVOCATION Rev.

(Audience will read words in heavy print) Let us give thanks for the gifts and graces of each division of our religious expression: For the ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH: its glorious traditions; its disci- plines in holiness; its worship, rich with the religious passion of the centuries; its noble company of martyrs, doctors, and saints; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the JEWISH CHURCH: its treasure of the experience of Thyself; its psalms and prophetic writings; its laws for the living of the meaningful life; its prophets, priests and seers; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the great Protestant and evangelical communions: For the ANGLICAN CHURCH: its reverent and temperate ways, through its Catholic heritage and its Protestant conscience; its yearning over the divisions of Christendom, and its longing to be used as a house of reconciliation; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the BAPTIST CHURCH, stressing personal regeneration and the conscious relation of the mature soul to its Lord; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/81ef293a6eefef41d7dedb566817de62.jpg 1e754ed91d0e303fe4d972951ef3ed8f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

For the LUTHERAN CHURCH: its devotion to the grace of God and the Word of God, enshrined in the ministry of the Word and sacraments; WE THANK THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For power among METHODISTS to awaken the conscience of Christians to our social evils; and for their emphasis upon the witness of experience and the fruits of the disciplined life; WE PRAISE THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the PRESBYTERIAN reverence for the sovereignty of God and their confidence in His faithfulness to His covenant; for their sense of the moral law, expressing itself in constitutional government; WE PRAISE THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. For the great number of FREE CHURCHES, both in town and country place, speaking the gospel of salvation through humble repentence; preaching the Word of God and inspiring their members for conscientious daily living; WE PRAISE THEE, O LORD, AND BLESS THY HOLY NAME. O God, grant unto all these families within Thy great Church, that as they come to sit down in Thy Kingdom, each may lay at Thy feet that special grace and excellence with which Thou in times past hast endowed it, that we may all glorify Thee in all the world. Amen. ANTHEM "Battle Hymn Of The Republic" Peter J. Wilhousky (Sung by the combined choirs of Delaware County) Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored; He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword: His truth is marching on. Glory! Hallelujah! I have seen Him in the watchfires of a hundred circling camps; They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps; I can read His righteous sentence in the dim and flaring lamps: His truth is marching on. Glory! Hallelujah! In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me; As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free, While God is marching on! Glory! Hallelujah! Amen.

NEWS RELEASE The date for the celebration of the Sunbury Sesqui-Centennial was set for July first, second, third, and fourth 1966. The Sesqui- Centennial Commission moved rapidly into plans to promote this coming historical, central-Ohio village event at a meeting held Monday, July 12, 1965 at 7:30 P. M. in the Town Hall. Mrs. Bernard Stockwell presented an excellent drawing of a trademark for the Sesqui celebration. The Commission quickly adopted the simple but dignified symbol for the official label to be used throughout the entire existence of the Sesqu-Centennial celebration. Goals to be achieved by the Sesqui-Centennial commission were written by Miss Esther McCormick and accepted as official by the Commission members. Monthly meetings of the Commission will be held on the first Monday of each month at 7:30 P. M. in the Town Hall. Plans for the Flea Market to be held Sunday, August 8, 1965, on the east side of the village square, were outlined by Miss Esther McCormick, who with the assistance of Miss Mary Kaye Sidders has laid the groundwork for this event. Contracts have been received from dealers in antiques, guns, coins, ceramics, side walk markets, food, and old-fashioned fabrics. The Flea Market will also feature an old- fashioned ice cream social, buggy and other types of rides, a Book Mart, a Country Store, and music by the Big Walnut High School Band. A donation of a $1.00 will give one a chance on a pony, bridle, saddle, and blanket to be raffled off at the Labor Day celebration. Booth space, priced at $5.00, is still available to any interested parties. Admission to the Flea Market will be a donation of 50 cents for each adult but children under 12 will be admitted free if accompanied by an adult. Mark this date on your calendar! Tentative plans were discussed for the forth-coming Labor Day. Mr. Lou Guidotti, president of the Lions Club, granted permission to the Sesqui-Centennial commission to share in the activities of this annual holiday which for many years has featured an Ox Roast. Also tentative are the plans for the Halloween Festival to be held on October 29th and 30th this year. Any persons or organizations interested in these holiday celebrations should contact the Commission as soon as possible.

Hundreds of people from all over central Ohio flocked into Sunbury Sunday in spite of rain and overcast skies to attend the Flea Market held on the streets to open festivities for the Sesquicentennial next year. Nearly fifty dealers put up their wares in vacant store rooms and under awnings of store fronts and cheerfully handled the throngs that passed through the lines all day starting at 10:00 that morning. Many residents had inquired before the day just what was a Flea Market? The News was anxious to learn. George Lindsey of the Sesquicentennial Commission which sponsored the affair tells that the custom originated in France in the 1500's. Looters and thieves of the time would set up their stolen goods on the streets in the cities and sell it. Since the merchants at that time were quite dirty and "buggy" the term "Flea Market was given to that particular type of sale. The name remains though circumstances are different. Crowd Fills Town All Day "Possibly never before has the historic public square and the old brick town hall looked prettier and more inviting. Compliments on the town and friendly people came from all sides on Sunday," Miss Esther McCormick told the News. Miss McCormick and Miss Mary Kaye Sidders were co-chairmen of the Flea market committee. Other members working on it besides those on the Sesqui Commission were Mrs. Charles Ward and Mrs. Peter Corna. Thanks to Everyone Helping Miss McCormick asked that the News pass on their thanks to everyone who helped with special thanks to Progress and Searchlight Clubs for the Country Store; the Community Library for its Book Mart; the CCL League and Mrs. Marian Whitney and her volunteers and the Wester- ville Creamery for the Oldtime Ice Cream Social; the Band Boosters for their food booth; Big Walnut Band for music (musicians, the crowd would have liked more); the men who gave enjoy- ment to children and added a note of festivity with firetruck rides; Frank Stelzer, James Hoover and the village policemen who gave extra time and effort; the Sunbury News for excell- ent publicity; Delaware Chamber of Commerce and Delaware County Council of Social Agencies as well as WDLR for the good coverage and Dan Clancy of the Columbus Dispatch for interesting write ups. Very special thanks to Williamsons and Hill's Drugs who quickly made their stores and buildings available to the community and the visiting dealers. Sunbury, we put ourselves on the Ohio map Sunday: Let's keep going, " Miss McCormick added. Mr and Mrs Jack Wintermute of Galion spent most of the day in the News Office. These former residents were the oldest attending: she is 95 and he is 90 The News will bring you more about them later. Scores of other former residents were in town.

Sunbury June 13, 1966 Sesquicentennial Commission, Inc. Mr. William Whitney, Editor The Sunbury News Sunbury, Ohio Dear Mr. Whitney: The Sunbury Sesquicentennial celebration is scheduled for June 27 through July 4th, 1966. Such a celebration is an honorable and historical event. In May, 1965, several interested citizens volun- tered their services to the planning, promoting, and administering of this celebration. For legal functioning and the protection of its members, the group was incorporated under the name of the Sunbury Sesquicentennial Commission. The goals of the Commission are: (1) to present a successful celebration with an many parti- cipants as possible; (a) to encourage strong school and youth parti- cipation: (b) to give recognition and awards for individual and organ- izational achievements; (2) to make the community conscious of its heritage and to encourage the preservation of an historical society or civic committee to carry on after 1966; (3) to engage, encourage, and promote a community program of beautification; and (4) to engage in activities which will permit the Sunbury Sesquicentennial Commission to fulfill its goals. The Commission is a non-salaried, non-profit, organization dedicated to the goals outlined above. A more dedicated group would be difficult to find anywhere. The Commission has met once every month and many times more in some of those months. Each member has also headed up a committee, and that committee has involved many sub-committees where numbers of persons have donated time and energy over and beyond the call of duty. The names of these persons are too numerous to list but each worked long and hard without any monetary compensation. Many organizations have also cooperated with the Sesquicentennial movement and realizing the need for funds have agreed to the fifty-fifty split of the net profits. Over and above the time, energy, and work given, many individuals on the Commission have also donated valuable items and cash money toward the activities for the promotion of this grand celebration. If these people have been willing to give so generously of themselves, surely all residents of the Big Walnut School District should be cognizant of their efforts and reward them and the community during the coming eight days of festivity by: (1) encouraging them with constructive criticism; (2) active participation in and attendance at all events: (3) being courteous and gracious to all those who will be visiting our community at this time; and (4) realizing that there are and will be personality clashes, mistakes, and words uttered thoughtlessly but nevertheless the goals remain the same and will be attained if every- one keeps them in mind. Look about you to see what the Commission has accomplished to date. Are people conscious of their heritage? We think so for it is showing in many ways - the flags on the street, the articles in the newspapers, and more. There have been two successful Flea Markets, a wonderful Fourth of July, and interesting Labor Day, and Fall Festival on the activity level. The Commission backed the Town Council in the restoration of the Town Hall, the planting of shrubbery, and has had an indirect influence on the laying of the new sidewalks. New electrical hook-ups have been placed around the square to handle the news of an activity such as the Flea Market, and organizational activities have increased many times over. Because the Sunbury Sesquicentennial Commission is incorporated, any individual or organization which uses the words of the name, the dates, the seal, or any type of Commission materials, etc. are required to pay the Commission fifty percent of the net profits gained from such use. The Commission would appreciate the receipt of these profits without the need for billing each individual or organization. Mark your calendar. Send in your entry or registration form for an event.

Description An account of the resource [page 20] [corresponds to labeled page 16 of Sesquicentennial Scrapbook, Sunbury, Ohio, 1816-1966] Features of the Sesquicentennial Photo of Mrs Ruth Truxall Writer of Early Days who has been bringing you the articles weekly on the history of early days, much of it as it appeared in the newspapers of the day. And So It Was! How did it happen, you ask, that these articles were written? The answer is simple: To fulfill the promise made to the Sesquicentennial Commission that I would do some- thing to help the sesquicentennial effort. From doing other research I knew that there is a wealth of interesting historical material to be had for the searching. With that in mind I offered to research and write several articles for THE SUNBURY NEWS if they would care to publish them. Graciously, they consented - - and the number of articles eventually grew to thirty-one. The work, time-consuming though it was, has been exceedingly interesting. I have been happy to have this part in the Sesquicentennial and to share my findings with anyone who cared to read the articles. Ruth Domigan Truxall Sunbury , Ohio September 29, 1966 Starting on January 27, 1966 and continuing through October 6, 1966, articles of historical interest, written by Mrs Ruth Truxall, were published in The Sunbury News. The subject matter of these articles is listed below. All the articles will be preserved in a scrap book to be kept in the Community Library. Two of the articles are shown as they were printed in The Sunbury News.

It housed the public address system which had been installed with the compliments of The Ohio Central Telephone Corp; it was the souvenir shop where the history books, ties, hats, shoulder patches, garters, license plaques,and other items could be purchased; it served as the hospitality center where one could register and gather information on the Sesqui activities; it became a station for the arrival and departure of shuttle buses, hikers and touring guides; and far from least, it was a haven for lost children and forgotten items. The Log Cabin was the hub of the entire administration of the celebration. From early morning until late at night, the cabin was aglow with activity and light. Many, many persons assisted in the work done there. A list of scheduled workers has been included here but there were others whose names do not appear as there is no record to consult. Miss Karen Lane headed a group of young girls who served as information aides and assisted the Hospitality Committee. Scheduled workers included: Jeannette Curren Erma Anderson Ronnie Stemen Maxine Link Polly Bergandine Hylen Souders Paul Stelzer Lib Stelzer Charity Walker Ellen Stemen Lawrence Hill, Sr. Gladys Hill Marguerite Williamson Wilma Ward Margaret Garee Mary Kaye Sidders Other members of the Commission whose names are not listed also assisted in the Cabin throughout the celebration when their help was needed.

SNELL, Editor VOL. 4 SEPTEMBER, 1930, NUMBER No.3 Paper Making in Delaware County, Ohio [photo: Old dam and mill site, Stratford, Ohio] STRATFORD, a scenic spot on the Olentangy River in Delaware County, Ohio, was once a thriving paper mill village. Today only shrub and vine covered ruins of the old mills and dam remain to hint of its former paper making activities. While Stratford does not re- semble that more famous English Stratford-on- Avon, for which it was named, in natural beauty the Ohio Stratford does not suffer by comparison. The earliest commercial references obtainable state that a grist mill was built in Stratford about 1808. The builder's name is not mentioned, but the record reveals that the property eventually was purchased by Forrest Meeker. He rebuilt and enlarged the mill in 1829 making of it a substantial structure of stone, and adding facilities for carding and fulling wool. The first deed mentioning it as a mill property was recorded August 15, 1832. This deed conveying the property from Forrest Meeker to Forrest Meeker, Jr., for a price of $4,000.00. Samuel Lantz next pur- chased the property at the same price, October 17, 1836, and he in turn sold it to Hosea Williams and Caleb Howard for $5,500.00, June 5, 1838, describing it in the deed as the Meeker Mill property. A Delaware County history written in 1880 by W.H. Perrin and J.W. Battle, gives the following account of the first paper mill on this property: "Sometime in the early thirties Caleb Howard, an enterprising, speculative sort of a man conceived the idea of establishing a paper mill at what is now Stratford, and succeeded in interesting Judge Hosea Williams, a safe, cautious business man in the project. (Judge Hosea Williams came of Welch parentage. He was born in Berkshire County, Mass., August 3, 1792, was educated, and clerked in a general store in Pittsfield, Mass. He came to Delaware County with his parents in 1817. He died February 12, 1876.) "In the Spring of 1838 the old flouring mill, with the mill privileges and property, were bought, the old dam replaced by a splendid stone structure and a paper mill put in operation October 1, 1839. John Hoyt was the first superin- tendent. He gave the classic name of Stratford to the place.

Eastman, Mary Stew- ard, Mary Pierce, Mary McClure. Hiram G. Andrews, a Delaware merchant, who was born in Franklin County, Ohio, July, 1813, purchased half of Caleb Howard's holdings in the mill property for $9,000, on September 5, 1843, and the balance, for $10,000, on April 25, 1845--in all, a five-twelfths interest in the business. In 1849 the old flouring mill was fitted for the manufac- ture of half a ton of wrapping paper daily. About ten men were em- ployed. On February 27, 1857, the entire plant was burned with a loss of $25,000, the insurance not exceeding $10,000. In November, 1857, a two- story stone building about 50x80 feet, with several additions was built at a cost of about $30,000. By this time the mill was recognized as the most important paper mill west of the Alle- ghany Mountains. At the time of the fire the firm had accounts of $10,000 due from the State, and in 1861 they had a large contract with the State which, owing to the unforeseen and extraordinary rise in the paper market, they were compelled to ask to have rescinded. The main mill manufactured print and book papers and the one on the site of the old flouring mill furnished wrapping paper. An Artesian well sunk 210 feet through solid rock furnished water for purifying purposes. Steam furnished power during low stages of water. ANDREWS AND PERRY COMPANY Wishing to retire from the business Hiram G. Andrews, on June 10, 1865 deeded "for $5.00 and love and affection" his five-twelfths interest in the business to his son James. James Andrews then purchased a one-twelfth interest from Hosea Williams for $2,000. Norman D. Perry, who was superintendant of the mill, also purchased a one-twelfth interest from Williams for $2,000, and the mill was operated as the Andrews and Perry Company. In the late sixties, Abraham Dewitt and his brother-in-law, a Mr. Brown, with his son operated the mill possibly by lease, as there is no record of ownership. There is also mention of Abraham and Isaac Vought, who were related by mar- riage to Perry, having been interested in some way. On August 25, 1870, John H. Mendenhall, a successful Delaware merchant, purchased the half interest of James Andrews for $20,000, and the name of the concern was changed to the Delaware Paper Company. DELAWARE PAPER COMPANY The first edition of Lockwood's Paper Mill Directory, 1872, lists the mill as having one 42" and one 48" cylinder machines making newsprint, book, tea wrap- per and tissue papers in one mill and straw wrapping in the other. The business evidently was prosperous for Mr. Mendenhall purchased another mill at this time in Henry, Ill., on the Illinois River. This Mill made a ton of newsprint daily on a 54-inch cylinder machine. Associated with Mr. Mendenhall were two sons of his Stratford partners, Hiram R. Andrews and Albert Perry. These young men managed the Henry mill. In 1873 and 1874 Norman D. Perry, Jacob L. Klein and Andrew J. Clark purchased small interests in the Stratford mill. On August 1, 1874, Andrews sold his interest in the Henry mill to Isaac Title A name given to the resource Superior facts (p. 2) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/84d4ed1742d0be6e45a1ca8c25e77b1c.jpg 1abf07b834aca8b01122d341678c845a Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Unfortunately the insurance had been allowed to lapse and Mr. Mendenhall was a heavy loser. He was obliged to pay indorsed notes held against the company. The Stratford mills were operated as a partnership and Mr. Mendenhall, being a man of means, was held for its obligations. An assignment was made by Perry, Klein and Clark for the benefit of the creditors. The assets were not sufficient to meet the claims of the creditors. Mr. Mendenhall's claim was a personal one for notes given when he sold his stock. Those loses practically ruined him financially, and coupled with a general business depression the mills suffered accordingly. Lack of orders and run-down equipment made operating expensive. Operations were finally sus- pended in 1876. The organization was bankrupt and an assignment was made by Perry, Klein, and Clark on behalf of the creditors. After a hard fight by Mr. Mendenhall the courts established a value of $36,540 on the property. About this time the Hill Brothers, Frank A. and Fred P., successful farmers and stock raisers of Delaware County, and grandsons of Hosea Williams, one of the original owners of the mill, were anxious to reopen the mill. They obtained the property at the court sale on April 10, 1877. With them in the enterprise were their father, Chauncy Hill, and a nephew, Velorus T. Hill. THE HILLS PAPER COMPANY This new organization operated the mills under the management of Fred P. Hills. Frank A. Hills was in charge of manufacturing, but having no working knowledge of the business he was obliged in 1879, to secure the services of Solomon Wagg as superintendent. Mr. Wagg had been running a machine at the L.L. Brown Mill of North Adams, Mass. Mr. Wagg soon left Stratford to run the mill at Woodsville, Ohio, William Osborn succeeding him. Mr. Osborn also came from the L.L. Brown Mill. The Hills were not successful as paper manufacturers and sold the mill on March 13, 1882. Joshua R. Randall of Elkhart, Ind., a paper salesman with some prac- tical knowledge of papermaking, induced Charles W. Edsell, and Nelson W. Mills, merchants of Ostego, Michigan, to invest with him. They formed a partnership known as Randall-Mills and Edsell. [photo: Another view of Stratford Mill Hills Paper Co.] RANDALL-MILLS & EDSELL The new owners took over the mills, Mr. Randall acting as manager and superintendent. Matters went poorly and Mr. Edsell moved to Delaware and took over the mill management. Adam Glass, a salesman of Buffalo, N.Y., joined him and together they purchased the interests of Randall and Mills. GLASS-EDSELL PAPER COMPANY The property was sold for $60,000 to the Glass-Edsell paper Company, Incor- porated, December 18, 1884, the incorporators being Adam Glass, Charles W. Ed- sell, Amasa Burch, Edward Fowler and William Corner. Mr. Corner, or Connor as some of the records give it, was superintendent. Many improvements were made. A mile spur track was built off the Hocking Valley Railraod to the mill, eliminating the three-mile trucking to and from Delaware. In 1884 they installed a 60-inch Black and Clawson Fourdrinier machine and in 1885 a second 48-inch Fourdrinier was installed, replacing the clylinder machines. Owing to lack of power for competitive production the buisness again proved unprofitable and re- sulted in a total loss to the stockholders. An assignment was made on December 7, 1893. THE DELAWARE PAPER COMPANY This company was incorporated February 24, 1894, and started to make straw wrapper on the two Fourdriniers, but soon changed them over to cylinder ma- chines.

STRATFORD PAPER MILLS--WESTCOTT AND SCANLON Robert Scanlon operated the mill in 1897 and 1898 as the Stratfrod Paper Mills, making straw-rag and manilla lining paper. The Stratford Mills were succeeded in 1899 by Westcott and Scanlon, operated a short time and closed permanently. A success was never again made of the mills. The machinery was sold to Seromlin and Westcott and Herbert Peck purchased the real estate for $2,000, according to records, February 11, 1899. Herman Reidel was the last superintendent to operate the mill. In 1900 Robert Scanlon was active in organizing the Brownstown Straw Board Paper Company, who purchased the two machines in the Stratford mill, equipping a mill at Brownstown, Ind, now the Kieffer Paper Company, where these original machines are still in operation. In 1902 the Columbus, Delaware, and Marion Electric Railroad Company pur- chased the Stratford Mill property and converted the buildings into a carbarn and repair shops. On December 15, 1927, the buildings were totally destroyed by fire and never rebuilt. The big flood of 1913 destroyed the waterpower and as there is not the volume of water that formerly flowed through Olentangy River, there is little possibility that this will ever be developed again for power or manufacturing purposes. Of the people formerly associated with these mills, Charles W. Edsell, after failing to make good at paper making, returned to Otsego where he has been very successful as a real estate operator. He is in good health and with his wife cele- brated their fifty-first weddng anniversary in Florida last winter. Fred Palmer Hills, former manager of the mill, is now associated with the Delaware Savings Bank. James Price, an old time employee, is living retired at Stratford. Geo. Hesser, former superintendent of the Riverside Paper Company, Appleton, Wis., but now retired was once a machine tender at Stratford. Harman Breyfogle, the first backtender on "The big 60-inch Fourdrinier" is now living at White Pigeon, Mich. Herbert A.

Chain, Chain, Who Made the Chain ? In July Number of Superior Facts we told how Lime Rock, Conn., forges were said to have produced the chain that was stretched across the Hudson River in Revolutionary days to prevent British warships from reaching West Point. George Gammie, assistant superintendent of the Rolalnd Paper Company, St. Jerome Quebec, tells us that while he was superintendent at a mill in Moodna, N.Y., he heard similar claims for the forge at Moodna. Since publishing the Lime Rock item we have heard similar claims of forges in Saratoga and Columbia Counties, N.Y. From what we learn this famous chain was hurriedly put together and every available forge was pressed into the service of making portions of it for the emergency. We will be pleased to receive and publish any definite facts regarding the actual making of this chain from our readers.--Editor.

Breyfogle] I was born in Stratford, Ohio, and started my career in the paper industry at the age of thirteen as a cutter boy in the old Stratford Wrapping Mill which was then owned by the Randall-Mills and Edsell. Later came my pro- motion to backtender and three years after I was assigned as machine tender at the daily wage of $1.25. Six months later I became machine tender for the Hastings Paper company, Enon, Ohio, under S.W. Sroufe, who is now superintendent of the Dresden Paper Mills Company, Dresden, Ohio. I worked there for about two years, saving sufficient money meanwhile to take a course in a business college. I next secured a machine tending job in the F.J. Diem and Company mill, Dayton, Ohio. Two years later this mill was taken over and closed by the Columbia Straw Paper Company. I then went with the Nixon Paper Company, Richmond, Indiana, set up an old Fourdrinier and started on lightweight bag paper. I was with this mill until it closed. In 1893 I returned to Stratford to work for the then new Delaware Paper Company. From there I went to Steubenville, Ohio, to run a machine for Hartje Brothers under Tom Bygot, superintendent. I was with this Company two and a half years. The Tarentum Paper Mills installed a new machine and I joined them as a machine tender for one year. From this mill I went with the Harvey Paper Company, Wellsburg, West Virginia, to run a machine that the Black and Clawson Company had removed from a Louisville, Kentucky, mill and rebuilt. My next move was to the Ford Manufacturing Company, Clinton, Iowa, and soon after I went to Alexandria, Indiana, to run machine for the Alexandria Paper Company, where I remained for eighteen months. Wehn the Wayne Mill, Hartford City, Indiana, installed a new machine, I went with them to start it up. Next I joined with John and Al Wiley in a lease of the old National Paper Company, Waterloo, Iowa, and ran it a short time. I next went with the Chicago Coated Board Company. Tom Harvey, now manager of the Gardner Harvey Paper Company, was superintendent. I moved on to the Beveridge Paper Co- pany and ran a machine for them, leaving to go with the Franklin Manufactur- ing Company, Franklin, Pa. W.D. Boyce had purchased this mill and J.E. Daley was superintendent. Mr. Daley hired me to dismantle the mill and after it was shipped to Marseilles, Illinois, I set up the machinery and started the mill. From there I went with the Marion Paper Company, and then with the Ohio Boxboard Company as superintendent. I was with this company thre years, after which I joined the Western Board and Paper Company as super- intendent. I built and started up this mill. Later I went with the Oscar Felt and Paper Company, and rebuilt it as a board mill, the name being changed to the Michigan Box Board Company. From this mill I went to Kalamazoo, Michigan, as superintendent of the Standard Paper Company. I was with them about three years. After this I went with Mr. G.H. Nood, president of the River Raisin Paper Company, as general superintendent of the Bogalusa Paper Company, and was with them during the building and starting up of this mill. My father, Henry S. Breyfogle, started to work as a teamster for the Andrew, Perry and Mendenhall in 1858. He later became a machine tender, and the most of this time as beater engineer. I can remember old Joe Phillips when he ran a machine at Stratford, but only for a short time as he was noted as being "the tramp paper maker." I also remember when Jack Simington worked in this mill, and both of them have had many meals at my home.

PSOCIDAE CORRIDENTIA alias PSOCIDS or BOOK and DUST LOUSE This pest is probably more disgusting and annoying than it is destructive. It only feeds on the paste and glue used in binding books or the animal or vegetable substance of surface sized or coated papers when they are damp. A. E. Back, Entomologist, in Farmers Bulletin No. 1104 of the United States De- partment of Agriculture, tells us in part: "Book lice or psocids are the tiny white or grayish-White insect-, scarcely as long as the width of an ordinary pinhead, and often much smaller, that scurry across the pages when old, musty books are opened. "They appear in houses in greatest num- bers during late summer and early fall, and are more abundant in damp, well-shaded rooms not in general use, and in houses long closed. Very few are found in bright, sunny, dry rooms in constant use. "Book lice run in a halting fashion over everything in the house. They feed on all sorts of vegetable and animal matter. It is not often that they become abun- dant, and when they do, they attract attention more by their annoying presence than by the actual damage caused. They injure man in no way and are there- fore unlike the true lice. "The book lice that occur in houses have no wings and are seldom one- sixteenth of an inch long, often much smaller. They are pale colored, almost white when young, hut as they grow older are darkened somewhat by the food they have eaten, for this shows through their more or less translucent bodies. When old, musty books are opened suddenly, the book lice may be seen scurry- ing across the pages in a halting and uncertain fashion, and frequently they are noticed upon door screens, window panes, furniture, books and photographs or upon almost any object in the room. "Book lice thrive best in closed rooms that are warm and damp. Seldom are they noticed in light, airy rooms in constant use. They are found in houses that have been closed all summer. They die off during cold weather, but may leave behind them eggs which hatch the following spring to furnish the infesta- tion for the succeeding year. Ordinarily they do not become abundant enough to attract attention until late summer or early fall. "Upholstered furniture and mattresses Stuffed with straw, husks, hair, feathers or moss are especially favorable places for their multiplication, and in the worst cases of infestation on record the psocids have come from such sources. They have been found in myriads in straw in barns and stables, in the straw coverings of wine bottles in cellars, and in rooms in which tow used in the manufacture of upholstered furniture is kept. "One record on file indicates the usual history of infestation. In a new house kept by very neat occupants a mattress of hair and corn husks which had been purchased not more than six months before was found in a badly infested condition after the house had been closed about six weeks. It was so covered with psocids that a pin could not he stuck into the mattress without piercing an insect. The side of the sheet next to the mattress was likewise covered, and a further search showed the walls and the entire house to be swarming with the tiny pests. A sweep of the hand over the walls would gather them by the thousands.

Description An account of the resource [page 7] SUPERIOR FACTS 7 HOW TO CONTROL BOOK LICE IN HOUSES "Where only a few book lice are present, a thorough cleaning, airing and drying of the room is all that is needed, provided the source of infestation is within the room itself. As many as possible of the objects in the room should be removed and thoroughly sunned on a bright day. The room should be heated to a temperature of from 120 to 140 degrees F.'. for several hours. Psocids are soft-bodied insects and succumb to a long drying due to heat. Where rooms are located on the ground Hour in loosely constructed buildings in shaded and damp situations, as are many summer cottages, so many psocids come in from the outside that almost no treatment will entirely rid a room of them. "When book lice swarm in alarming numbers over and throughout a room the breeding places should be located at once. If the source is old straw or husk fillings of mattresses, these should he removed and burned wherever pos- sible. Thorough fumigation with the fumes of sulphur,* 1 pound of sulphur being burned for each 1,000 cubic feet of space, is effective. Where other pests are present, such as bedbugs, and where the bleaching effects of the fumes can lie disregarded, as in barracks, .5 pounds of sulphur will prove effective. During fumigation the rooms should he kept closed as tightly as possible, and after five or six hours opened from without and thoroughly aired. Fumigation with hydrocyanic-acid gas is very effective, hut dangerous in the hands of inexpe- rienced persons.(See Farmers' Bulletin 699.) "Closets, boxes, trunks and sometimes even entire rooms, where infested ob- jects are kept near the floor, can he fumigated satisfactorily with carbon disul- phid. (See Fanners' Bulletin 799.) In addition to cleanliness and plenty of sunlight, licit or fumigation, wherever it can be applied, will yield the best results, if the source of infestation has been removed." The Cambridge Natural History book on insects says: "One specie of the family of Psocidea, Clothilla Pulsatora, is widely known as the 'Death Watch' owing to the belief that it is able to make a peculiar ticking noise supposed to be prophetic of the decease of some individual (human not insect). The Rev. W. Derham, who two hundred years ago was rector of Upminster in Essex (England) gave an account of the ticking of the dentil watches to the Royal Society. He said: 'I am now so used to and skillful in the matter as to be able to see and show them beating almost when I please by having a paper with some of them in it, conveniently placed, and imitating their pulsations which they will readily answer.' He said he could only hear them when it was done on paper and that the death watches would tick for hours at a time resembling the ticking of a watch." "*Before resorting to sulphur fumigation the householder should be warned that sulphur fumes can unite with moisture in the air to form sulphuric acid, thus having a bleaching effect upon wall paper and other articles, as well as tarnishing metals of all sorts. The damper the house, the greater the bleaching. In houses thoroughly dried by heat very little bleaching occurs.

From "Consolidated News," published by the Consolidated Water Power and Paper Co. God bless these tourists that come from far and near, wanting to go through a paper mill. "I came all the way from Iowa just to see how paper is made," they say. Others happened to see the smoke stack and thought they would drop over. We enjoy the college eo-ed or schoolma'am, studying industrial problems, getting ready to write an article on "From Logs to Paper" or something like that. Recently a not bad looking dame in her middle thirties appeared and uttered a wish to visit the mill. She was getting information for a thesis so we took her at her word and also took her by the arm and guided her hither and thither. "I will send you a copy of my thesis," quoth she,--and here it is: WOOD comes into the paper mill in rafts, gondolas or hookahorns and dumped into a pond containing hot water. In the wood room there are a large number of men engaged in sawing the logs in two and throwing them into huge revolving tubes which scrape off the bark and broom the ends sufficiently to permit it to be ground into chips. The chips travel on a belt to the sulphite mill where they are put into a rotating device called a sulphur burner. Here the wood mixes with sulphur and then the chips are cooled off in the cooler, ready for making paper. Some of the wood goes to the grinder room and ground Op, where a high pressure water pump forces the wood from the bins to the grindstone, resulting in a pulpy substance which is pumped to the suction presses. The free stock flows freely, while the slow stock travels more slowly. Before the pulp gets to the paper machines, it is passed through screens which take out the foreign material from Canada. The paper machine is a huge device consisting of a lot of rolls which revolve at the rate of 500 to 1,000 feet per minute. The pulp first goes through a copper screen called a wire, then into a wire pit where the fibres are criss-crossed by the machine tender.The back-tender takes care of the backside of the machine. The paper is then pulled through perforated rolls, called suction rolls, by means of vacuum pumps. These pumps are kept in a vacuum. In order to get the paper in good shape for printing it must be dried and then wound on reels where it is rubbed thoroughly with clay, alum, chlorine and jordans. In the boiler house there are large stokers filled with tubes and super heaters. The coal is emptied into a hopper on the roof and let down to the boilers, first passing through the preheaters and then through stokers and economizers. Attempt is made at all times to keep water in the boilers, otherwise the fireman would he put to considerable inconvenience. In the power plant are the generators which are filled with coils, volts and switch panels. The water rushes through the generators, causing them to revolve and produce thousands of kilowatts. These kilowatts are used in the process of paper manufacture. Story of Osborns Soon Limited space prevented us from publishing the history of the Osborns in this issue. In our October issue, we will carry a brief story on William Osborn, his son, George Osborn, and his grandson, Clarence Osborn. William and George Osborn were closely associated with the early days of paper making in Strat- ford, Ohio.

Howard in 1885] In his own words and style, Mr. Howard relates the following highly interesting side lights of his career in paper making and the history of the old Strat- ford Mills. To old friends, Mr. Howard will be better known as Edward W. Hougawout, the later name having been changed in re- cent years for the sake of brevity and clarity. Mr. Howard now resides at Kau- kanna. Wis., and we wish to credit and thank him for much of the information used in our story of Stratford. "I was born in Andover Township, Sus- sex County, New Jersey, of Colonial Scotch Irish and Dutch stock. My maternal grand- father did costume weaving. My paternal grandfather owned and operated a saddlery ?harness shop, we would call it. Before railroads were so common all heavy freight was carried across the country by great canastoga wagons drawn by four, six, or eight heavy mules. The great demand for saddles and harness made the saddlery busi- ness very important and profitable. "I do not remember much about home or conditions there before the Civil War since I was only five years old when the war broke out. My father enlisted on the first call, leaving his little mason contracting business which his business friends absorbed during his absence. That made it necessary for us to strike out for ourselves as soon as we were old enough. "My mother's folks were interested in a paper mill at Stratford, Delaware County, Ohio. Before I arrived in 187J the old owners had died or sold out. This mill was three miles from any railroad, on the west side of the Olentangy River about twenty-five miles north of Columbus. It had a good stone dam with water power six or eight months in the year. This company owned a straw wrapping mill up near the dam, which was operated when there was surplus water power. That old wrapping mill was a relic of tile middle ages. The machine was hand made?that it, built up of scraps, odds and ends from the machine in the lower mill. It was tied up and wired from stem to stern. The two beaters were driven by a spur gear off a water wheel, one beater being on either side of tile spur from which both were driven. The lower, or 'white mill," as it was called, had been built originally for a writing paper mill and had been operated as such for many years. "When I arrived on the scene they were making newsprint entirely of rags, on a little machine a man could reach across. In Delaware, two and a half miles from the mill, there was man named Blackwell who ran twenty-five tin peddler wagons out into the country trading tinware for rags, brass and copper. Black- well sold those rags to the nearest paper mills. Stratford mill employed forty to sixty girls in the rag room. They made nineteen sorts of these nice clean country rags. They sold new white cotton cuttings, new white linen cuttings, new brown linen cuttings, new brown cotton cuttings, soft wool, hard wool, all wool blankets, half wool blankets, number one all white no seams, number two old white with seams, and light calicoes. I have forgotten how to classify them now. My first job was baling up the sorts that were sold. The new cuttings were shipped to Massachusetts and the woolens to Philadelphia. I managed to work through the mill in a year or two. "The machine was one of the first cylinder machines with six dryers, pro- ducing in twenty-four hours about twenty-four hundred pounds of all rag paper used for print. If they had stuck to writing paper or tissue it would not have been so bad, but to use such stock for print was a crime. But what would Title A name given to the resource Superior facts (p. 9) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/adcefa4208dc3aec1bce04d90f22f799.jpg 6734ac3d8086a096b6fd0f0c249363ba Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The stock was bleached with powder instead of liquor, colored white with ultramarine blue, mea- sured up with a tin cup instead of being weighed. No red was used. Rosin was put in the beaters in paste form instead of being dissolved in water. It looked dark red like soft soap made with wood ashes. The paper was hard and strong. It should have been since it was made by strong, hard-boiled people. That Stratford was a hard joint at that time. After I had been there a year or two the company went bankrupt and was bought out by Hills Brothers, local men in the town of Delaware. One of the Hills, Frank, was a gentleman farmer. [photo: W. Howard today] He was made manager. He was a fine person but knew nothing about the business. They put a teamster on to run a machine. The young man was all right as a teamster hut knew nothing about paper making. Two or three of the machine boys and myself were the only old men in the mill. We had a lot of sport with the new machine tender. One day we pursuaded him that the dryer bearings were getting hot, burning. He shut the machine down and tried to cool them off by pouring water on them. "I worked pretty much all through the mill?rag room, heater, steam engine, tiring, and even filled the rotary and cut rags. When I left I was running the beaters. They had two two hundred fifty-pound beaters and one six hundred- pound beater nd two three hundred-pound washers. The mill was then in very bad repair. It was no unusual thing to shut down two or three hours for repairs. One day the main three-inch line shaft broke, and had to he taken down to a blacksmith shop to be fixed. We shoved one end through the front door and the other one in the back, got the two ends together in the forge fire, put the heat on, jammed the two ends together, smoothed it up, straightened it out and put it back. It ran without ever going into a lathe. That was some job even for this day. "My next jump was to Ohio, with Woodsdale Chatfield and Woods of Cin- cinnati. Next I went to Batavia, Illinois, July 1, 1880. The Van Nortwicks had converted the old Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad shops into a paper mill. It had three machines and just started a new ninety-two inch Four- drinier, the largest in the west at that time. They were making straw print, eighty-five per cent, straw and five per cent, rag, and about ten per cent, ground wood. It had five large digestors using straw from nearby farms. They did not buy and store the straw at that time. The farmers brought it in under contract and there seemed always to be a surplus. The help were a wild and wooly lot. Whiskey was cheap and lots of it was consumed. I only stayed there four months. The job was too much for any one man. They emptied from forty-two to forty-five beaters and four washers, and there were no Jordans in the mill. We were at it all the time. The beaters were never all furnished at one time. "The beater helpers had to help fill straw digestors three or four times at night. That put the beaters back and altogether it was a rush job, a two man job. On October twenty-eight, I had a row with the boss about one of the machine tenders who would be drunk all day and try to work his night shift. I was the goat for his lessened production, or smaller rim of paper. On the train into Chicago on the morning of November 1, 1880, the boss jollied me and tried to have me return to work because he had found out where the trouble had been in his mill. But I did not go hack; I had had enough of that stuff, and, let me add that during my forty-eight years in the mill my only serious trouble came from drinking mates, drinking helpers, and also drinking bosses, the last being the worst of all. Prohibition may not function as some believe, but the drunken boss is a rare bird in the year of Our Lord 1930, while in 1880 he was only too common. "My next job was in the Mead and Nixon Mill, Dayton, Ohio. John Luke, one of the founders of the West Virginia Paper Company, was superintendent of the mills. One machine was on hook and one on manila wrapping paper made of pine and spruce. They had the pulp made in their own pulp mills just Title A name given to the resource Superior facts (p. 10) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/8083276dd8aac02120e5242e917dffce.jpg 96c9a09436d9b2020530409e2c08331f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I got a lot of experience here for John Luke was a first class paper maker. "I left Dayton and went to work for the Miamisburg Paper Company at Miamisburg. Boss Hughes, a Scotch-Irish boy, was superintendent. One day he told me to go out and help fight ice on the racks, and I told him to go to a warmer place. That was in February, 1881; I bad been there since December, 1880. There I met Cuningham, Johnson, and other old timers from the other mill, the Ohio Paper Mill. I did not get along very well with my boss so I left the Miami Valley and went to South Bend, Indiana. "I found the South Bend mill more modern, three machines, all water power, but no Jordans yet in my experience. Before I left South Bend they had in- stalled a Brightman refining engine. It was cone shaped about four feet long and three feet across at the big end and tapered to about eighteen inches at the small end. It was failure; no more of that type were built as far as I know. The first time they shut down after I went there was January 20, 1883. John Bolton and I went to the Franklin Paper Company at Franklin, Ohio. We remained there till May, 1883. The South Bend Company reorganized and sent for us so we went back. They got a superintendent from Ohio to run the mill in mid-summer. He cut every man's pay on September 1, 1883. I quit along with every other paper maker in the mill and went to the new mill at Eau Claire, Wisconsin, which had been promoted by the same William Beach who built the South Bend Mill. "Eau Claire was at that time a lumber town with eight large saw mills. The paper mill was on the Chippewa Lumber and Boom Company's dam. They had one seventy-six inch Fourdrinier machine, two six hundred-pound beaters, washers, Jordan, and four Datvon wood grinders. They made print from rag and ground wood. There was a surplus of water power at all times; the best power I ever worked on. I went there as a beaterman, then they put me in the rag room as foreman. Ted Pope became manager and Elmer Pope foreman. The mill was a wooden shell stuck up on the bluffs so near the dam that they tapped the dam with the forehay within twenty feet. We were never bothered with ice. The water wheels were set too high and when water went down, the steps would burn out. That was how Ted Pope lost his big toe, going after the men when they were putting in new steps. When they had fooled along for a year or two putting in new steps they finally lengthened out the draft tubes. Here was a good chance for a mill, good water, plenty of money, and every- thing necessary but it was not a success. The Davises of Neenah bought it and rebuilt the whole plant. "When I arrived in the Eau Claire mill things were not in such good shape. Drainers were all filled with rags that were not cooked. The half stuff was full of colored threads which could not he bleached out so it made specks in the paper; the color was off, and the wood pulp showed slivers which made the sheet rough. We got the rags cooked by putting a padlock on the steam valve of the rotary. They fired with wet green slabs and when the steam went down the firemen would shut off the rotary to save shutting down the paper machine. There was nothing in Eau Claire for me hut trouble. "I jumped from there to Rockland, Delware. Went to work for William Luke in the Rockland mill, Jessup and More Paper Company. This was October, 1886. I was thirty years old. I stayed with Mr. Luke for four years and learned many things from him, how to make stuff on time and a lot about coloring paper. This was an up-to-date concern; everything in good running order and the dis- cipline in the mill was perfect. In March, 1890 we moved to Appleton, Wisconsin, to work for the Fox River Paper Company. The Lincoln Mill had just been finished. We started on all rag bond, fine, and superfine. It ran the first seven years without a jordan. In all those years we dragged along with ice and low water. The power never was sufficient. From 1890 to 1915 it was h?l, one long nightmare, when I look back at it all. I worked from one job to another and when I quit in 1920 I was honored with the title of assistant superintendent. Ernest Timm was my boss. I was sixty-four years old. "I don't think paper making has been much of a trade since the jordan and sulphite pulp came into use; nor is the paper the same. New standards are being established by young men coming into all branches of the production and selling departments of the game, making for many radical changes. But who cares? Who knows the difference?"

But a book of this kind would not be complete did it not contain a few, at least, of the most important facts and events of the history of the otwn its pages were intended to por- tray, for it is but natural that the future of a town is to be judged somewhat by the past. Sunbury was laid out by William and Lawrence Meyers, the original plat bearing the date of November 8, 1816. About a year before this Mr. Whitmore opened the first store. He occupied a amall brick house now the site of Joel Letts' residence on the south-west corner of the square. He was succeeded in the centerprise by Ben- jamin Webb, who occupied a store onthe corner of Col- umbus and Granville streets. A third store was opened by Stephen R. Bennett. Following close on these enter- prises was the building of a tavern by Mr Rodgers. In 1820, the stage lines bringing more trade ot town. Law- rence Meyers put up a grand hotel, Now occupied as a residence by J. D. Skeels.

The first tailor was Haultz Evans, who came in 1828. The first schoolhouse was built in 1831 on the south-cast corner of the public square. Besides serv- ing the purpose for which it was erected, it was also used by the early religious organizations as a place of worship. A saw-mill, tannery and distillery were early industries. In 1865 a stock company was formed for the manufacture of a general line of furniture. In 1868 the town hall was built, the money being raised by popular subscriptions. The third story of the hall was built by the Free and Accepted Masons, who use it yet for lodge purposes. In October, 1872, the Farmers' Bank was organized. Further mention of it is made under the head of Financial Institutions. Thus the town grew, new enterprises being added from time to time, and new citizen coming into it. There are institutions and busi- ness enterprises that we notice separately, which have done much to make Sunbury what it is: one of the best residence and business towns in central Ohio. The foregoing shows what Sunbury has been in the past and what it is now. We have every reason to be- lieve that it has a very prosperous future before it. Its location, natural resources, railroad facilities, healthful climate, etc., are the things upon which we base our pre- diction. The town has maintained a steady growth and improvement during the past, and we may confidently expect that it will continue to do so. The citizens are full of enterprise and business and they will keep things moving. What is now needed is not that our business men be more active and energetic, but that their number be added to with men who have not only the capital, but the ability and energy as well, who will come here and establish industries that will pay large dividends on the investments, and also give employment to men with fam- ilies, who will come here to live. There are many Title A name given to the resource Picturesque Sunbury (p. 10) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/252f850e491ee968e4f7211cc8d66426.jpg c24dafee129d2bbba9e94fd8ba405fab Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

There is every probability that an electric road will soon be built through Sunbury, connecting the county seats of Delaware and Licking. Such a line would very materially increase our trade, opening up territory whose inhabitants now go to other markets because of inad- equate means of travel. In the years to come, Sunbury will gradually but surely grow. The gradual, steady improvement now being made will continue. Everything is favorable to such growth and improvement. The town is now and always will be a model residence and business place. We welcome to our midst all who would better their con- dition financially, socially, morally or intellectually. Resources and Facilities. _____ Sunbury is situated near the center of the eastern part of Delaware county. The site seems to have been admirably chosen for the future prospects of the village, situated as it is near the conjuction of three counties, Delaware, Licking and Knox, midway between Mt Ver- non and Columbus, on the Mt Vernon and Columbus road, which was for years the only thoroughfare in the central part of the state between the north and south, and gave rise to a great deal of traffic through, and no little profit to, Sunbury as a stage station. It was reas- onable to suppose, therefore, that with such natural ad- vantages to attract enterprising men, the newly formed village moght grow to considerable size, and attract to itself that part of the three counties which was bo re- mote from any town of considerable size.

Surrounding the town in every direction is land that for many agricultural purposes is surpassed nowhere in the state. The land is especially adapted to the raising of grain and stock. The most of it is available as there are no large swamps or bogs, and few barren hills. The surrounding country is gently undulating. The drainage is good and there are few pieces of land within many miles that may not be well drained. We are located between the Big Walnut river on the ease and Prarie Run and Little Walnut on the west. In the spring and summer season, one standing on any eminence near the town, could behold as beautiful country as God ever created. Besides being adapted to the raising of grain and live stock it is also suitable for fruits and verge- tables, and accordingly considerable attention is paid to this latter industry. All kinds of fruit and vegetables that can be raised anywhere in Ohio, can be produced in the region around Sunbury. Along the banks of the Big Walnut, for several miles, may be found millions of perches of the best stone for building purposes that can be found in the state. The quarry industry has been given some attention, and thousands of carload of stone have been gotten out and shipped to many points in the state. But this industry has never been thoroughly developed. If more men of capital and enterprise would open up quarries and put in the necessary machinery, not only would it be the best and most profitable investment of their money that could be made, but it would give employment to hundreds of men. The Sunbury blue stone will always find a market, for the reason that it can always be used for any purpose that stone is used for. Plenty of the best timber is to be found near the town. Oak, hickory, beech, maple and elm are the principal species. This timber is easily gotten out and always finds a good market.

There is still room, how- ever, for others to go into the business and make money out of it. In speaking of advantages in the way of agriculture we should not forget that there is in Sunbury one of the best creameries in the state. One of the principal pro- ducts of the farmer is milk which he brings to the creamery to be made into butter that sells in the markets for higher than the Elgin prices. The farmers make more money out of this branch of agriculture that any other, and if there is anyone who wishes to improve his condition, we could give him no better advice than to come to Sunbury, purchase cows and patronize the cream- ery. No better place could be found for the location of a factory that Sunbury. As has been said we have plenty of stone, plenty of timber, plenty of farm products, and we also have plenty of labor. Our shipping facilities are agood. We are situated on the C. A. & C. Ry., which is a direct ine to Cleveland, Akron, Mt Vernon and Colum- bus. The company has always been very considerate in fixing its freight rates, and the rates are as low as are consistent with good services. The water supply of Sun- bury is the best. There are many good locations for a factory. Any manufacturing concern which would de- sire to locate here would meet with the encouragement of every citizens. Taking everything into consideration, there is no better place for the establishment of a factory than Sunbury. As a residence town Sunbury is equal to any other. We have no saloons, no dives or questionable resorts. The tone of he society of the village is moral and elevat- ing. Religion and morality are encouraged. Schools and churches are well maintained. Everything that is desirable as a residence place is found in Sunbury.

The school building is a fine two-story brick, erected in 1878. It is situated on a slight elevation at the north end of Vernon street. The building is well ventilated and lighted, and is one of the finest in the county. The grounds are two acres in extent and are nicely planted in shade trees. From the upper story and belfry a fine view of the town and surrounding country can be had. It has lately been repaired and repainted and furnished with new desks, slate blackboards and a large amount of modern apparatus of various kinds, and the latest maps.

The bank trans- acts all business usually done by banks, including the re- ceiving of deposits, loaning money, buying and selling exchange, collections, etc. The present officers are O. H. Kimball, president, and O. A. Kimball cashier. C. O. Armstrong is employed as assistant. There is not a solider, safer institution in the state than the Farmers' Bank. The people have great confidence in the men who manage its affairs, for they are not only financially capable, but are men of good sound judgment and bus- iness ability. Cepter Stark, O. H. and O. A. Kimball are the stockholders. SUNBURY BUILDING & LOAN CO. The Sunbury Building & Loan Co. was incorporated in April, 1896. with a capital stock of $200,000. This company was organized for the purpose of aiding the citizens of Sunbury to build homes and improve their property, also to afford a means of saving money. The company will take care of your money, and pay you a good interest on it. You can borrow of the company, build yourself a house, and thus stop paying rent. We regard this as one of our greatest of institutions. MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE CO. The Delaware County Farmers' Mutual Fire Insur- ance Co. was incorporated Sept. 4, 1877. This company insures farm property only. The total amount of gross risks in force Dec. 12, 1895 was $2,210,257; total losses and expenses since organization, $13,658.50; average loss per year, $430.25; average expense per year $199.34.

Feb. 6, 1888 a meeting of the citizens of Sunbury was held for the purpose of establishing monthly stock sales. Officers were elected, money raised, and the sale advertised. The first sale was held March 2, 1888. These sales have been held the first Friday in every month since then. People have attended from all over the country. All kinds of live stock meets with ready sale on these occasions, and buyers are always here. No one thing has helped the business of Sunbury more than the stock sales. The merchants offer special bar- gains on these days, and in consequence are kept busy all day. On sale day the town has much the appearance of a county fair. These sales will be kept up regularly as they have been in the past. CHURCHES. The religious denominations in Sunbury are the Baptist and the Methodist. These two societies have flourished since early in the history of the town. As early as 1820 societies w3ere formed for the dissemination of christian doctrines. There is also a Christian church at Tahway, about a mile and a half east of town, and there are many church people here who hold membership elsewhere. The churches work in harmony for the good of all, and any religious movement receives the hearty support of all the people. ORGANIZATIONS. In secret societies we have the following: Sparrow Lodge, No 400, F. & A. M.; Columbia Chapter, No. 33, O. E. S.;Sunbury Lodge, No. 231, K. of P. There are several other organizations that deserve mention. These are: Sunbury Christian Endeavor so- ciety; King's Daughters; Daughters of Industry; Alumni Association; and the Knox Band.

HOMESTEAD STOCK FARM' The Homestead Stock Farm McPerfect, proprietor, is located one and one-half miles north-east of Sunbury. Mr. Perfect has here fitted up everything necessary for the keeping and training of horses. He is the owner of the noted stallions McGuire, 2:29 1/2, No. 21676, and Homestead, 2:25. Mr Perfect has a good half-mile track on his farm, and once a year conducts a day of races, which are well attended, and at which a number of the best horses show their speed. A COMMERCIAL CENTER. As a commercial center Sunbury finds no superior in any town of its size. There is a larger amount of busi- ness transacted here than there is done in many towns that have twice the population. This is true both of the local and foreign trade. Our merchants, business and professional men are prosperous. We have rarely had a business failure. While those who are here are well qualified to conduct the various branches of business, there is yet room in many lines for energetic, capable men. As a shipping point Sunbury is among the leaders. Hay, grain, live stock and country produce are the prisn cipal articles of export, and the reports of our railway agent indicate that in this respect we are ahead of very many larger stations. There are a number of men who make it their business to buy and ship these articles, and Whenever one has anything to sell, it meets with a ready market at good prices.

Description An account of the resource [page 5] [corresponds to unlabeled page 5 of Welcome to the Village of Galena] HISTORY OF GALENA Zoar, located between Big and Little Walnut Creeks, was founded in 1809, by Gilbert Carpenter. In 1834, when it became necessary to establish a post office and there being another Zoar in Ohio, the name was changed to Galena. To choose a new name for Zoar, a committee of three was appointed. Nathan Dustin, grandfather of the late Fred Dustin, was one of the committee. Unable to agree on a name, the three met one day in front of the Dustin residence and agreed that each would place a name in a hat and the first passerby would be blindfolded and asked to draw from the hat. The name he drew would be the new name of the village. Galena was the name drawn. A few of the facts of the early history of our village begins with two brother who started from Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania to the state of Ohio. One of these brothers, the Reverend Gilbert Carpenter, set- tled in Galena in 1809, and thus became the first Methodist minister in Delaware County. The other, the Honorable Benjamin Carpenter, built about one mile north of Sunbury. The former had been a promi- nent minister in his native state and the latter had been a Congress- man. ( On May 3, 1962, the Delaware City Chapters, Daughters of the American Revolution, dedicated a bronze marker at the grave of Lt. Benjamin Carpenter in the Galena Cemetery for his prominence in the American Revolutionary War.) On April 14, 1813, Gilbert Carpenter conveyed to William Carpen- ter this tract of land in Sunbury Township, which was later divided between Trenton and Berkshire Townships. William Carpenter thus layed out the village of Zoar. His layout showed Walnut street, Mill Race, Middle Street, West Street, the Square, State Road, Front Street, a meeting house and burial ground. On April 3, 1816, upon agreement of said plat drawn up by William Carpenter, to all for whom it may concern, Zoar became a reality. On January 4, 1924, shortly after the village became incorporated, the first form of self-government was organized. The minutes of Council from that first meeting are as follows: Council met in called session at the call of the Mayor-elect for organization. Councilmen-elect present, C.C. Bricker, I.C. Budd, James Van Fleet, Ed Linnaberry and R.E. Fissel. The oath of office was administered by Mayor W.F. Bennett to the following councilmen: C.C. Bricker, I.C. Budd, James Van Fleet, Ed Linnaberry and R.E. Fissel. Councilman C.L. Smythe had deposited oath of office with Mayor Bennett, which was executed on December 19, 1923, before O.W. Whitney, a Notary Public. Moved by James Van Fleet, seconded by I.C. Budd that R.E. Fissel act as President of Council. Carried by affirmative vote. Moved by Ed Linnaberry, seconded by C.C. Bricker that meeting adjourn to meet Monday evening January 7, 1924. Motion carried. Attest: O.J. Hancock, clerk Approved W.F. Bennett, mayor Title A name given to the resource Welcome to the Village of Galena (p. 5) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/236c8b6d8a340b729ddb4c35a00ea8b6.jpg 9cdffce4b00a6e623dc58f2d50245d05 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections. For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Description An account of the resource [page 6] [corresponds to unlabeled page 6 of Welcome to the Village of Galena] Since W.F. Bennett, who served as the first mayor, several other men have succeeded. The following is a partial list: I.C. Budd, John Cockrell, Nathan Dustin, Arthur Strider, Paul Evarts, Harold Roof, Hugh Strider and presently Gordon Walker. In 1945, the present town house was constructed. Before this time the village council held their meetings in the school. The town house is used for other organization meetings as well as a voting precinct. A few years later the fire house was added. Before, the fire house was in the basement of the town house. Another improvement by the village took place with the installation of a water system in the late 1950's. On April 16, 1966, the village of Galena will observe its 150th birthday. Let us go back first to September 10, 1907, when Galena celebrated the 100th anniversary of its founding. The celebration took place upon the farm settled upon and formerly owned by Benja- min Carpenter. There were about 125 descendents of the founders in attendance. GALENA SCHOOL The earliest public building on record in Zoar was an old log school house near the site of the present school building. It was used for both school and church purposes, and built years before the platting of the town on April 3, 1816. In preparing the ground for erection of the present school house, workmen discovered it had been formerly a burial ground and from their findings decided it was graves of Indians. In 1867, part of the present school building was erected, which was later in the 1920's remodelled and once again in the early 1950's into the present building. History records that it is the oldest school building in the county in use today. It has always been considered one of the best in the county and while it seemed a little slow in be- coming a graded school, it was only ten years later than the Delaware City Schools. In the early 1900's the Galena School flourished as a preparatory school for teachers. At that time, there was a state law whereby the township must pay tuition for students passing what was known as the Boxwell Test to go to a high school, if that township had no high school. Galena had a better preparatory course than many others in the county, so many students came here, secured, lodging and board in different homes and remained for their course. Mr. Ira Gregory, member of the county board, was superintendent here at that time. A few other early superintendents where I.C. Guinther, D.C. Meek, N.M. Miller, E .W. Van Fleet, Harold Stiles and Grant M. Plumb. From 1886 to 1951, when the school district was consolidated into the Big Walnut School District, 540 students had graduated from the Galena High School.

Description An account of the resource [page 15] [corresponds to unlabeled page 15 of Welcome to the Village of Galena] OLD HOMES AND BUSINESSES Before 1906, there was no square in the center of town. You could drive any place and as it was horse and buggy days a water trough was near the pump so people could stop and water their horses. There was also hitching posts to tie the horses. But in 1906 the square was graded and made into a square instead of driving through which was caused by the construction of the old 3 C Highway. With the reloca- tion of roads in later years, the square has once again gone back to its square shape. Around this square and throughout the village, many businesses and homes have flourished and many have disappeared. The follow- in is a short review of these different homes and businesses. One of the oldest houses, if not the oldest, was the one formerly owned by Mrs. Lee on the west side of the square which burned when the store burned. It was built with three-inch planks inside, which is thought was intended for protection from the Indians. The Dustin home, built in 1826, now owned by Dr. L.M. Ihle, was the stagecoach station with the bar and all things necessary for such a station. The horses were kept in the barn at the rear of the house. Also, Mr. Nathan Dustin built scales and a stockyard. Hogs were brought there, weighed, and they, with their owner, went on foot to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to the market. In those days there was a larger frame hog than today and the hog put on fat on its way. (On Sunday, May 15, 1966, the Delaware County Historical Society dedicated a historical marker on the Dustin home. The Stagecoach Inn, as it was known, was built by Nathan Dustin (1791 - 1872) of brick that was made at the rear of the building. Mrs. Walter Pabst gave a historical sketch of the Dustin home. Also present was Mr. Charles A. Jones, personal secretary to Sen- ator Frank B. Willis. The wife of Mr. Willis was Allie Dustin, a descendant of Nathan Dustin. Mr. Jones gave a brief characteriza- tion of Mr. Willis and his visits to Galena. ) In the early days on the property last owned by Mr. and Mrs. Lo- gan Barrick on S. Columbus Street, was a grist mill, run by Tom Van Fleet, father of Jim and Carpe Van Fleet. Across the road from this was a sawmill operated by Nathan Dustin, Sr. Near the saw- mill was a tannery. Both of the mills were run by water. Two races were made, one for each mill, taking water from Big Walnut to Little Walnut. One race was visible until 1956, before the City of Columbus acquired the land for construction of the dam. The tannery was a two-story building. On the second floor was the office of Mr. Ed Sherman, who had a patent on building the covered bridges. The patent was on the bracing of these bridges, and he built the ones in the community. There were three of these bridges here, one spanned Little Walnut on the West Galena Road and was replaced by an iron bridge in 1931. One was south of Galena on Yankee Street crossing Big Walnut and was replaced by an iron bridge in 1933.

Now, in 1966, these iron bridges have been removed and the roads abandoned because of the Hoover Dam. On the present site of the Galena Bank was the Maynard Hotel, which burned more than eighty-five years ago. By the side of the Maynard Hotel on the south side of the square was a drug store, managed by Squire Wells. The first funeral director in Galena was a Mr. Smothers, then la- ter Mr. Morrison. At present George DeVore operates a funeral home on N. Walnut Street in the dwelling formerly owned by Addie Cooke. The shop on the west side, which burned, was orginally a tailor shop. The building was later enlarged and made into a store. Some of the past proprietors of that store were: Hyde & Young, Mossman, Clint Van Fleet, Merill, C. C. Bricker, Coons, Hancock, Beaver and William Trainer at the time it was destroyed by fire. There was a small building located between the store and the Dus- tin residence used for a voting booth. In later years, on the east side of town was another tailor shop. it belonged to Mr. Van Fleet. Also on the east side was a wagon shop run by Henry Cook, and a paint shop run by Al Seymour. Joe Adams was the painter, paint- ing wagons, etc. These buildings were the ones formerly owned by the late Frank McMahon, his blacksmith shop, etc., but have been removed by the City of Columbus. On the second story of one of these buildings was a Woodman of World (W.O.W.) Lodge. A factory, known as Brown and Hughes employing five men, was located south of the square. They manufactured polks. It was later known as Hugh and Smythe, and they made polks, rakes and hand corn planters. They employed several more men and sent a salesman out on the road to sell their goods. Most of them sold in the South. It discontinued in the early 1920's.

Columbus Street was a creamery. When I moved to Galena in 1906, it was op- erated by J. J. Weber. We, like many other residents, purchased milk at the creamery for seven quarts for a quarter. People went with their little quart buckets for the milk. After the creamery discontin- ued, a Sunshine Feed Store operated there for a few years. Then it was replaced by a house, but now the City of Columbus has taken the building. Later, Mr. George Mulzer started a feed store and beer chip fac- tory in the north end of town where now Mr. E. L. Hoke lives. He built the house and buildings. The chips were made of beech and were used to filter beer. They soon discontinued making them and used all their time on the feed mill, making good corn meal, buck- wheat flour, etc. After Mr. Mulzer's death it discontinued after being operated for a while by a son, Walter. His other son, Leslie is now a retired Brig. General in the Air Force. Several other hotels besides Maynard have operated here. One was on the east side of the square owned by Jim Budd and one on the west side owned by Sam Lee. Also on the south side of the square was Gelvin's Hotel, which is now the Clock Grill. Later restaurants, pool rooms and barber shops have been there. At the present time is Aller- ton's Grocery, Jim Vance's Tire and Battery Service and White's Grill. Dr Utley had a drug store on the south side of the square and they operated a fashionable hotel in the house on the bank of Big Walnut. In the basement they also had a good snack bar, serving school lun- ches and whatever the public demanded. The basement house on N. Walnut Street, south of the railroad crossing was built by Mr. Newman, who operated a restaurant in the basement. At that time the depot was across the street and many trains were in operation. Billy Vance was the agent at the depot. The Newman restaurant was a very convenient place for the trainmen to go Title A name given to the resource Welcome to the Village of Galena (p. 17) http://delawarecountymemory.org/files/original/2a44a66698dba44159d832f2a6f108cd.jpg 4e0cc033561d3204a74e8bf1ae37af0e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Mr Newman was also a mail messenger, conveying the mail to and from the post office and the depot. For years, Will Campbell operated a barber shop on the south side of the square. He was also postmaster in the same building for years. Carpe Van Fleet succeeded Mr. Campbell as postmaster. Then the office was moved to the north side with Mr. Fissel as postmaster, the the office burning while there. The post office was temporarily loca- ted on the west side of the square following the fire. Finally it was located at the present site in the Odd Fellows building with George Hogg as postmaster. Charlie Platt operated a meat market on the south side of the square and on the north side over a span of years have been doctors' offices, barber shops, beauty shops, pool room, millinery store and restaurants. At one time the Bell Telephone office was in the rear of the Odd Fel- lows building and the Citizens Telephone office was operated by Mrs. Frank Budd in her home across from the school. The north side grocery had as proprietors: John Adams, Mr. Ing- ham, Hoyt Williams, Will Bennett, I. C. Budd, John Hancock , Bob Glenndening, Gordon Walker and present it is a new brick struc- ture under the management of Roy Jahn. The hardware store on the east side has been removed. Some of the past proprietors of the old store were: Mr. Moss, Bill Mann, Mr. McCamment, H.L. Reed, W.B. Vance, Grant Bennett, Mr. Jordan and Virgil Kincaid. North of the railroad Hank Campbell operated a shoe cobblers shop at his home for years. Just east of that, Mr. E. C. Bennett and Son had a warehouse but it has now discontinued. Other places of business such as livery stables owned by Jim Budd and John Rogers and a sawmill by Grant Bennett have been out of op- eration for years. Before the construction of the present Galena Shale Tile and Brick Company, there was a smaller one in the same location. It was known as the Tile Mill, managed by J. T. Budd, then later by Ed Bennett and Jim Rose. After being idle for a while, it was organized by Mr. B. L. Shultz as the Galena Shale Tile and Brick Company, which is in operation today.

Church, Galena, Ohio] When any building has stood for more than 100 years and has been in constant use, it has many interesting stories and memories for those who know it. No building could have more memories, both joy-- ful and sad, than a church, so we are very grateful for "Our Church." In 1807, the first service on record held in this neighborhood was in a cabin on a farm two miles south of Galena. It was held by a lo- cal preacher by the name of John Williams. Gilbert Carpenter built a mill in Galena in 1809, and services were held in this mill in summer and the homes during the winter up to 1814 when the Carpenter home was built. This house, built one year after our church was organized, was used as a place for public worship for years. While our church here was organized in 1813, with 14 mem- bers, it was fifteen years later before we had a church building. The date of the first recorded official meeting is September 20, 1828. These are the words, "At a meeting of the subscribers held in Zoar, Ezekial Brown, Chairman; Samuel Leonard, Clerk; the follow- ing resolutions were adopted: " 1st. That said house shall be built 40 ft. wide and 60 ft. long. "2nd. That the committee named in the subscription papers shall continue to do business. "3rd. That Benj. Carpenter 2nd shall be acting agent for said house and provide a book and make all necessary entries. "4th. That the subscribers names and their subscriptions shall be entered in said book. "5th. That the agent shall purchase the two Vansicle lots to build said house upon." There were subscribers in all, the largest subscription being $102.50, the smallest $2.00, the total amounting to $1092.

Description An account of the resource [page 20] [corresponds to unlabeled page 20 of Welcome to the Village of Galena] The first trustees of the church property were: Benj. Carpenter, Enoch Domigan, Barack Weeks, John S. Brown, Samuel Leonard, Chas. Carpenter, while Benj. Carpenter, Jr. was Sec. and Treas. of board and superintendent of church building. Later, Samuel Carver, Ira Arnold, Nathan Dustin and Harlowe Allen were elected taking the place of deceased or otherwise removed members. The Galena charge as it was known consisted of eleven points, namely: Galena, Trenton, Kingston, Bennington, Sunbury, Berlin Sta- tion, Eden, Ashley, Winsor Corners, Berlin and Berkshire; Galena be- ing the largest. Samuel Lynch and A. J. Lyons were the pastors. From 1865 to 1868, Ease Delaware was a part of Galena charge. In 1869, the Conference arranged the charge with Galena, Sunbury, Berk- shire and Vans Valley. It remained that way until 1915 or 1916. There is no complete list of pastors until 1844. We know that in 1829, L. Swormstead was pastor and in 1839, William S. Morrow was the preacher. Then beginning in 1844, follows the list of pastors: L. Swormstead, W. S. Morrow, John Scholes, Daniel Lambert, S. H. Alderman, H. M. Shafer, John Mitchell, John Blampied, Sam L. Linch, A. J. Lyons, ________ Adams, S. Frant, B. A. Webster, Amos Wilson, W. G. Watters, J.

McCon- nell, W. R. Polhamus, J. M. Ackman. During either 1915 or 1916, after the division of the charge, it left the Galena and Vans Valley churches together and the Sunbury and the Berkshire churches. Until this division the only parsonage had always been in Galena. Many years later in 1960, the Galena and Vans Valley churches separated, and so today each have their own minister.

The first remodelling of the church took place when Rev. Polhamus entered his duties of pastorate of Galena Church, September 25, 1909. He found the church building in bad condition. The building needed painting, new glass, new paper, the roof leaked, the belfry was bad- ly decayed, the timbers supporting the floor were spreading. In January, 1910, a meeting was called for the purpose of remodel- ling the church and the building of a parsonage at Galena. A build- ing committee, W. C. Roberts, F. C. Cornell, Joseph Arnold, E. B. Cole and the pastor was appointed to raise the money. By June there was pledged $3800.00. On September 9, four days before confer- ence, the church was rededicated with expenses pledged to $5500. During the pastorate of Rev. Ackman, 1914-1916, they added to the church at least 500 members, but lost by death and certificates and numerous moving away about 100. During the year 1916, Galena and Sunbury adopted the envelope system of raising funds for all expenses of the church. An average of .10 per week per member was decided upon. Some may pay .01 or some .75 a week, but the system has worked well and solved the financial problems. With the first remodelling, the interior setting of the Church was changed. The latter remodelling about 1950, presents an addition to the front and extra basement. It was started under the pastorate of Rev. Alva Taylor. The pulpit furniture was presented by Howard Whitehead in mem- ory of his wife, Emma Slack Whitehead, on August 17, 1947, during the pastorate of Rev. S. Lee Whitman, Sr. The beautiful colored windows have been donated by different mem- bers in memory of a loved one. The new Baldwin Orgasonic was purchased in 1955.

Description An account of the resource [page 22] [corresponds to unlabeled page 22 of Welcome to the Village of Galena] The church was first located at 71 S. Walnut St. and in November of 1950 moved to 217 Harrison St. During this time plans were being formulated to build the present brick church building at 127 Holmes St. These plans were completed in October of 1950, and the con- struction was completed early the next year, with the opening service being held Sunday July 1, 1951, with Dr. Galloway as speaker. The succeeding pastors were: Donald W. Woodruff 1945 - 1947 D. C. Kelley 1956-1959 A. J. Laird 1947 - 1949 B. R. Kean 1959 - 1961 M. F. Reeves 1949 - 1950 L. M. Tucker July 1961-Dec. 1961 G. F.

Kean's second call as pastor, the church planned and built a new educational unit which was completed in the fall of 1963. The church expresses its appreciation to all those who across the years have helped it to become a part of this fine community, and may it ever stand as a symbol of righteousness and peace. THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH The Episcopal Church stood on what is now the playground at the school house. It was an attractive little church built with a base- ment where social times were enjoyed. The church had a lovely bap- tismal font and Mr. and Mrs. Knight's daughter was the first person to be baptized in the new church.

These grounds ori- ginally were recruiting grounds for soldiers and the supposition is that the first burial might have been an early soldier, causing the be- ginning of the present cemetery. According to present records, which are correct, more Revolution- ary soldiers are buried here than in any other cemetery in Central Ohio. There are records of ten Revolutionary and ten of the War of 1812, eleven who served in the Civil War and three who fought in the Spanish-American War. Several of these graves were moved in the early 1950's because of the building of the Hoover Dam. The following is a complete list of the soldiers buried in the Galena Cemetery: Revolutionary soldiers: James Artheton, died May 5, 1826 Russell Bigelow, Sr. , died June 13, 1836 Ezekial Brown, died April 24, 1841 Hon.

One night a car load of sheep was shipped in here to John Dus- tin. As he was trying to drive them home, they became scattered and he had to wait until morning to find them. They had taken refuge in the cemetery and cleaned up the briar bushes. The citizens of the vil- age decided it looked so much better that they kept it cleaned after that, and, of course, now we have a paid caretaker of the cemetery.

The original board of directors consisted of: C. W. Hughes G. J. Roberts C. Horton S.F. Bennett A. O. Griffiths J. H. Dustin J. J. Adams W. F. Miller G. W. Bright J. R. Smythe E. Hall The first president from December 23, 1901 to August 1902, was George Hughes. From 1902 to 1908, the president was George Rob- erts; from 1908 to 1928, William Miller; from 1928 to 1942, Dr Noah Gorsuch; and from 1942 to 1965, Fred Dustin. Late in 1965, the Ga- lena Bank merged with the Delaware County Bank of Delaware, Ohio. The Galena Bank, like other banks, sometime during their lifetime, experiences the misfortune of being held up or broken into, and the Galena Bank is no exception. On Tuesday, October 4, 1932, eight yeggs blew open the safe and looted the bank of about $3500.00. All but $300.00 of the loot was recovered by two men on a road west of town five and one-half hours after the safe had been opened. The following is the story of the bank robbery as it appeared in the Wednesday, October 5, 1932, Columbus Dispatch. While bandits blew the safe of the Galena Bank early Tuesday, five men were being detained in a barber shop across the street by guards who prevented them from giving an alarm. The men were Ralph Watts, Charles Franklin, Pearl Allerton, Carl Cunningham and Gilbert Jones. Hidden behind barber chairs, lying on the floor and seeking cover around a stove, a group of seven men spent four hours in the Galena barber shop from 12:30 to 4:30 A.M. Tuesday, whispering to each other to "keep still" as bandits blew the safe of the Bank of Galena Company across the street. The men in the little barber shop were the only ones who knew of the bandits in the bank building, but they could not get out for guards were posted in front and rear. B.B. Miller, cashier of the bank, said Tuesday that not more than $100.00 was taken by the robbers, who blew the outer door of the safe and used an acetylene porch to cut a hole into the safe. This hole was so small that only two drawers containing pennies and nickels could be reached and the bulk of the money was not ob- tained. Telephone wires in the village were cut and guards were posted by the gang to give warnings. Entrance to the bank was gained through a side window and as soon as the men entered all windows were covered with tar paper to conceal the flames of the torch, but these were visible to the men in the shop.

Description An account of the resource [page 30] [corresponds to unlabeled page 30 of Welcome to the Village of Galena] The only car in which the bandits were seen was a 1927 pale blue Buick sedan with two spare tires in rear and bearing license plates D-8669. After the safe had been blown the men got into the car, according to the men in the barber shop and drove toward Columbus on the 3C Highway. C. F. Myers, marshall of Galena, knew nothing of the robbery un- til called early Tuesday morning, he said. Visions of putting up a brave front and putting the bandits to rout went glimmering when the men in the barber shop saw the guards, who said nothing but watched the men in the shop. A revolver in the barber shop was the only weapon to be used in a fight and after a whispered conference the revolver was placed on the floor out of reach. The conference was not one of war but of peace and discretion was decided to be the better part of valor. The bandits won a wordless victory for not a thing was said by any of them and not a shot was fired. All was quiet except for the creak of the town pump as the robbers pumped water to cool the safe and walked to and fro as they guarded both front and rear of the barber shop. When questioned about how they spent the four hours, the men said they were sure they did not talk. "Every time I head the stones in front of the door make a noise I thought sure that fellow was coming in here, and if he had I know I would have fallen dead right on the floor," Charles Franklin said. Pearl Allerton and Gilbert Jones, the barber, said that it was about midnight when they heard there were several suspicious looking men in town and that it was decided to sit up in the little barber shop and watch them. The light was turned out and the radio turned off and all was quiet until one man looked out the window and saw the two guards on watch and a few minutes later the other man was discovered in the rear of the building. Ralph Watts,Charles Franklin, Pearl Allerton, Carl Cunningham, Gilbert Jones, T. P. Hamer and Kenneth Platt were the men who spent the wee small hours of morning in the barber shop. ----------------------------- No more faithful nor loyal people to their country, conscience of church, can be found than here. Nor shall we wonder when we re- member that of the thirty-six Revolutionary soldiers buried within the county, ten of them are buried in the Galena cemetery, where also, our own Rev. Gilbert Carpenter was laid to rest. As the next generation will build on the foundations we lay for them, may our foundations be equalled to the foundations of our forefathers.
