Several companies are now figuring on the work and are likely that a decision will soon be reached.

Buried in a stone quarry, Zepo [[Stewart (surname) | Stewart]]. A young man age 20 met with a frightful accident at [[Reddicks]] stone quarry Tuesday morning. He was at work for employer Robert [[Baird (surname) | Baird]] taking out dirt and stone from the old quarry when a massive stone and earth that had been undermined caved in hurdling young [[Stewart (surname) | Stewart]] to the ground and burying him completely out of sight. The workmen sprang to the rescue and after a few minutes of service, they rescued him from under a massive stuff that is said would have weighed 10-12 tones. A messenger was sent for Dr. JH [[Stoll (surname) | Stoll]] who arrived as the unfortunate man was being carried into [[Baird’s]] home on [[Baum]] farm. Dr. [[Stoll (surname) | Stoll]] found that left leg had been broken close to hip and that his entire body was bruised and skinned. That he was not entirely killed is a miracle.

High water brought great damage to growing crops, bridges and fences. Fall of rain unprecedented in such a short time. [[Wooster, Ohio | Wooster]] and a greater part of county NE and North of city was visited last night by tremendous heavy rain and electric thunderstorm. Fall of rain in city was not as heavy as was in vicinity of [[Orrville, Ohio | Orrville]] and [[Burbank, Ohio | Burbank]]. The [[Apple Creek, Ohio | Apple Creek]] creek overflowed its banks in a few minutes and less than an hour the lowland between the bridge at Brewery and foot of [[Naftzgers Mill]] was inundated with a nightly mass of water that swept everything movable before it. The new bridge across the creek near the post house was swept from its moorings and floated down the valley. Stone culvert on Cemetery Street was washed away. Marshall [[Ellsperman (surname) | Ellsperman]] and others stood on the big covered bridge watching the rapidly rising water and before they were aware of it, they were hemmed in on all sides by water and with difficulty reached terma firma. The Marshall did not want to get his feet wet. Residence of Dr. BF [[Jones (surname) | Jones]] of Pittsburgh Avenue was struck by lightening and heavily damaged. The bank barn of RP [[Reddick (surname) | Reddick]] was also badly damaged by lightening. DB [[Condry (surname) | Condry]], manager of Highland Park says that the water dashed clear over the arched bridge in the park. Mr. [[Condry (surname) | Condry]] moaned the loss of two acres of early potatoes that were about ready to harvest.

[[Harrison (surname) | Harrison]] in [[Wooster, Ohio | Wooster]]. The president gives a grand reception by citizens fully 4000 people were at the depot Monday afternoon to great the president Benjamin [[Harrison (surname) | Harrison]] and the presidential party. Businesses of all kinds were practically suspended while the citizens irrespectively of party gathered together to give the chief executive homage and honor. The special train was 40 minutes late but long before the scheduled time about every foot of the valuable space around the depot was occupied by old and young alike. The following members committee on reception met the train at Millbrook Dr.: JE [[Barrett (surname) | Barrett]], CV [[Hard (surname) | Hard]], Benjamin [[Eason (surname) | Eason]], Dr. ON [[Stoddard (surname) | Stoddard]], Dr. AH [[Hunt (surname) | Hunt]], JB [[Taylor (surname) | Taylor]], DC [[Curry (surname) | Curry]], AS [[McClure (surname) | McClure and Rev. IN [[Keefer (surname) | Keefer]]. The President greeted the [[Wooster, Ohio | Wooster]] people very cordially and was especially warm in his greeting to ON [[Stoddard (surname) | Stoddard]] who was president of [[Miami University]] when the President attended that institution. As the train drew up to the depot, the college cry of students joined with the citizens in welcoming the distinguished visitor. When the President appeared on the platform of the car, cheer after cheer went up. He was escorted to a platform at the depot by members of Given Post [[GAR}} and introduced to the assembly by Hon. ML [[Smyser (surname) | Smyser]]. The speech is as follows: “My fellow citizens, if anything would relieve the sense of worries which is ordinary incident to extended railroad travel it be exceeding kindness by which we have been everywhere received by our fellow citizens and to look upon audiences like that assembled here composed in part of venerable men who experienced hardships of early life in [[Ohio]] of some of those venerable women who shared their labors in self denial of early life in the west and in part of their son that gallant second generation which in a time of the nations peril in 1861 sprang to its defenses and brought the flag home and honor and in part of those young men here undertaking the discipline of mind which is to fit them for useful American citizenship full of the ambitions of early manhood and I trust in the principals of morality and loyalty and in part of those sweet faced children coming from schools and homes to brighten with their presence their graver assemblage. Where else in the world could such a gathering be assembled. Where else so much of free individual life. Where else so much social order as here. The individual free to aspire and work. The community its own police officer and guardian. We are here as a American citizen having first duties to our families, to our neighbor and to the institutions with which we are connected. But above all and thought and by all we owe these duties to our country and to God by whose beneficial guidance our government was founded and by whose favor and protection it has been preserved. Friendly to all peoples of the world, we will not thwart our course or provoke quarrels by unfriendly acts. Neither will we be forgetful of the fact that we are charged here first with the conservation and promotion of American interests. That our government was founded by its own citizenship. But I cannot speak at further length. I must hurry on to other places where kind people are impatiently awaiting our coming. And to duties which will be assumed and undertaken with more courage since I have so often looked into the faces of the people where I endeavor to serve. Let me present to you now and so with great pleasure one of the gentleman called by me under the constitution to assist in the administration of the government on whom you have learned to love and honor. As you are now privileged to know Gen. Benjamin F [[Tracey (surname) | Tracey]], Secretary of the Navy.” The Secretary simply bowed his acknowledgement and Presidents party returned to their car and the train sped on its way leaving behind a cheering crowd.

He left the store for home a little before 9pm. Mr. [[Eshelman (surname) | Eshelman]] said he appeared to be in unusual good spirits as they passed the [[Archer]] house. He said it was too cold for him to take the long walk up to the house. [[Eshelman ]] said the walk would do him good and continued on with him. When they reached Leonard [[Saal (surname) | Saal]] meat market, they went inside. Mr. [[Saal (surname) | Saal]] was busy waiting a short time. They came out and walked east on Liberty Street. After going a block and one half, they turned back and reached the market store. Mr. [[Zimmerman (surname) | Zimmerman]] complained feeling unwell. He was given a chair and he appeared to experience some difficulty breathing. He asked Mr. [[Eshelman (surname) | Eshelman]] to go to inform Robert to tell him to go get a hack to get him home. Mr. [[Eshelman (surname) | Eshelman]], before starting asked if he should send for a doctor. He said he did not need a physician. Some minutes after Mr. [[Eshelman (surname) | Eshelman]] departed, James [[Mullins (surname) | Mullins]] esquire, came in and came by in his buggy and invited Mr. [[Zimmerman (surname) | Zimmerman]] to go in with him. He got up from his chair and walked out to the buggy and with Leonard [[Saal (surname) | Saal]] assistance, got into the buggy. George [[Blandford (surname) | Blandford]] Jr. came by at that time and noticing Mr. [[Zimmerman (surname) | Zimmerman]’s head was thrown back, took his pulse and placed the other had on back of his head. He told Mr. [[Mullins (surname) | Mullins]] that he believed [[Zimmerman]] was dying. Mr. [[Mullins (surname) | Mullins]] got out of the buggy to go get a physician and before he had barely got out, Mr. [[Blandford (surname) | Blandford]] said that Mr. [[Zimmerman (surname) | Zimmerman]] gave a gasp and ceased breathing. He was driven to his residence and the body taken in. John [[Zimmerman (surname) | Zimmerman]] was born in Richen Grand Duchy of [[Baden, Prussia | Baden]] on April 11, 1829 and came to America in 1845 going to the home of his brother then residing near [[Canal Dover, Ohio | Canal Dover]].

In 1852 he and Dr. [[McCall (surname) | McCall]] of [[Canton, Ohio | Canton]] opened a drugstore in old Exchange block in the city and continued until 1855 when Mr. [[Zimmerman (surname) | Zimmerman]] became sole owner. Contemplating on continuing in the trade for three years, he rented the room now occupied by [[Roller and Wilson]] and located there for ten years. In 1867, he purchased the land on which the old Exchange block was located and erected a commendable structure known as the Exchange block. In the spring of 1868, he took possession taking into partnership LP [[Higher (surname) | Ohligher]] and later his son, John R [[Zimmerman (surname) | Zimmerman]].
