20th Century Souvenir Edition of the Ossian News
Ossian, Ind. - January 1st, 1900
Jas. H. Keefer, Editor
Illustrated.
Introduction...
Standing on the threshold of a new century, any
publication cannot be deemed otherwise than worthy of production, providing
it is voicing progress, and is itself an organ of true progression.
Ossian is full of vigor -- is worthy of a broader attention than ever before:
first, because she enters the new era hopefully active, building upon the
experienes of a bravely-fought past; and, second, because she has much
more of everything calculated to entitle her to the good will of those
interested in developement (sic), whether of town or city, than formerly.
Therefore believing that there is a demand for an historical and biographical
work, which, by sketching somewhat of the past, proves the existence of
a bright presence, and the approach of a brighter future, the Publisher
of THE NEWS offers to friends and patrons, the most superb Souvenir Edition
ever gotten off a country press. That the effort, at this, the beginning
of a new epoch, will meet appreciation, and that any inaccuracies in data
will be overlooked, the Publisher cannot doubt.
