Two names from the past


From the back page of the January 1905 Solon Society journal. Henry Weber from Oakland, Maryland (recently deceased at this time) and Andrew Pierson from Cromwell, Connecticut, were both directors of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society, and both served as Vice President of the Society in their day. They both also ran horticultural businesses.

The Solon Society or Association was a short lived commercial venture that was mentioned in ZWT. Its journal, edited by Clayton J Woodworth, only ran for four issues.

 May 15, 1905 ZWT


Addenda

For those who would like to see the whole of the back page of the Solon Journal with all of the advertisements.

    Does it say anywhere specifically that the editor was Clayton J Woodworth?

    Many thanks for the scan. Everyone, even a little historian like me, likes facts.
