The historic writings of Joseph H. West are a part of the digital collection here at the Hamilton Township Public Library's Local History Collection. Mr. West has written many columns which brought interesting history to the area during the early part of the 20th century. Indeed, he is the predecessor to John Cleary, Alma Lawson and Harry Podmore. I will be posting many of these news articles which I dare say have been buried deep within the files of various area library microfilm collections. Note that the graphics here are without those vertical streaks that are on most microfilm due to sliding under the lens as pages are fast forwarded and reversed. As usual, I ask your indulgence on the poor quality of the photo of Mr. West, but offset printing technology was in the very earliest stages.
