Who can say what the future will
hold? Many of our current readers,
thankfully, want a paper product that
they can hold in their hands. Many of
the next generations, though the
people of my sons generation hardly ever look at a printed newspaper.
They get their news from their cellphones and other devices.
Forward-looking people and institutions need the news, though, and
that is the importance of having a
local news organization. We are proud
to be the primary source of reliable
information in and about New Castle,
proud that the newspaper has been
able to chronicle local history for 175
years. We realize, too, that the current
staff members are custodians of a
strong tradition. Like good custodians, we hope to provide good service
while we are here and, perhaps, leave
the organization and community
stronger for having been here.
Welcome to this book, a history of
many of the people and institutions
that helped build The Courier-Times
and the New Castle community.
