Biographical Sketches in January 1, 1900 Ossian News - Ossian, Indiana
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.
