    1. [OHDARKE] Greenville Democrat Advocate, Thursday, 17 Sept. 1903
    2. I have one page I copied out of the above-referenced paper so I thought I'd share what the local news is for anyone who may be interested. Happy hunting. L.E. WALLIN, of Anderson, Ind., was seeing relatives and meeting friends here Thursday. Quite a number of property owners are putting down cement walks and a great improvement it is for our thriving town. There are yet several badly needed near the center of our city, and where travel is the greatest. Owing to the absence of Assistant Marshal Cal MILLER, he being gone visiting, our old timer John HOOVER acted in his place as night watch the past week, and right well can John fill the place, and violators of the laws seem to know it and take heed. Mrs. John MYERS, new bride of Agent MYERS, met with a rather serious accident Wednesday night by falling down stairs and receiving such injuries as to disable her from moving about since. She was starting down stairs carrying a heavy lamp, when in some manner made a misstep and fell to the floor below. Zachariah MILLER, residing three miles west of town, died Thursday morning of heart trouble, aged ninety years. Funeral service and interment took place Sunday, conducted by Rev. BEARD, of the M.E. Church. The deceased was the oldest resident of this vicinity, and was very active until the past two years. He was known as one of our substantial farmers for many years. Nicholas DIDIER died Wednesday evening of a complication of diseases aged near thirty-six years. Funeral service and interment took place Saturday, conducted by the Knights of St. John order, of which he was a prominent member. The deceased was among our most energetic business men, being a member of the grain firm of Didier & Son for a number of years. He was well and favorably known and had many friends, which fact was verified by the large attendance at his funeral. Savona, O. Len Bussard and Chas. Steinhilber took in the excursion to Cincinnati Saturday.
