American, 1844
S. SCHWARTZ
BOOK BINDER, FAIRFIELD
The subscriber respectfully informs the public that he has located himself in the town of Fairfield, Franklin County, where he is prepared to bind books neatly, and substantially on the shortest notice. His terms will be low and produce will be taken at the market prices.
Books to be bound, if left at the Indiana American office, Brookville, with directions will be received there, bound and returned here as soon as possible.
Democrat, 1898
A free lecture will be given at the Fairfield M.E. Church on Friday evening, Oct. 21, by Rev. H.D. Sterrett of Brookville on the subject of "Fraternities."
The fact that Bro. Sterrett is a member of the leading popular secret orders enables him to speak advisedly on the advantages of brotherhood.
Let there be a good house as the speaker is a magnetic and popular talker.
Democrat, 1905
Joseph Baney, who was convicted of petit larceny at the November term of the court, was taken to the state prison at Michigan City Monday by Sheriff Stinger. Abe Bossert, Frank Geis, Charles Cooley and John Bruns accompanied Mr. Stinger. From Michigan City, they elected to go to Chicago on Monday where they visited the Deering Harvester works and the Armour packing and fertilizer plants. (Well, since we're in the area, why not?)
Democrat, 1923
The Methodist churches of Franklin County will hold a rally on Wednesday, Aug. 1, at Fairfield. This is a statewide movement.
The morning program will be given by the young people and will consist of amusements of all sorts, singing and recitations. The afternoon program will be given by the adults. Three state speakers will be there.
Fairfield is putting forth every effort to make this day a success. Two prizes will be given, one for the largest delegation of the church membership; the other for the best float.
This should be a banner day for Methodism in the county. Bring well filled baskets. People of other churches are invited to take part in the festivities.
