The accompanying graphic is an example of the way the contemporary press reported the persons, place and things from the area we know of today as Bromley. Note that "Wilbur Jottings" covers not only the Wilbur area and nary a word about the Bromley Section, which at the time the above article was written was at least 5 years old. The very famous Mercer Automobile Company was always referred to as being in Trenton, not Hamilton.
