Terse Paragraphs Concerning the Doing of Our Borough-The Column Our Readers Enjoy
Mrs. Ubil of North Fourth street was a caller at our office last Monday morning and said we should remind the readers of this paper that her husband, Thomas Kauffman Ubil, one of the well known retired employees of the P. R. R. company, was present in the office of the Bulletin when it was first printed back in 1888 and received the first copy that came off the press, which is now in his possession.  The office was then located on North First street, across from the Wentzel store building, and thus Mr. Ubil is numbered among the original subscribers.  There are also many other original subscribers [the paper is cut-off at this point].
~ Bellwood Bulletin, 08-Apr-1943, Page 1, Column 1
