Tramps broke into the Perkins schoolhouse, one mile east and two miles north of this village, on Saturday night. They lighted a fire and perhaps remained all night. They also stole a number of books belonging to the teacher, also several from the library which were either burned or carried away. ~Fairgrove Enterprise~ 01-28-1897

On Friday evening last, John Edgar Evans, while endeavoring to get on the ,south bound passenger train, while it was in motion, fell, and the rear wheels of the coach passed over his feet crushing them so that amputation was necessary. He rallied some after the operation, but Saturday afternoon grew steadily weaker, and about 24 hours after the aecident he died. Mr. Evans was well known throughout the country.~Akron Correspondent to Fairgrove Enterprise 03- 22-1907
