   FRANK E. OSBORN.  Indiana has always been distinguished for the high rank
of her bench and bar.  While the growth and development of the state in the
last half century has been most marvelous viewed from any standpoint, yet of
no one class of her citizenship has she greater reason for just pride than
her judges and attorneys.  In Frank E. Osborn we find united many of the
rare qualities which go to make up a successful lawyers.  He has those solid
and more substantial qualities which shine with a constant lustre, shedding
light in the dark places with steadiness and continuity rather than those
brilliant, dazzling and meteoric qualities which are sometimes seen on the
legal horizon.  He has that rare ability of saying in a convincing way the
right thing at the right time.  His mind is analytical, logical and
inductive, and with a thorough and comprehensive knowledge of the
fundamental prinicples of the law he combines a familiarity with statutory
law and a sober, clear judgment which makes him a formidable adversary in
legal combat.
   Mr. Osborn was born in Essex, now Morgan township, in Porter county,
Indiana, September 17, 1857.  His paternal grandfather, Jonathan Osborn, was
a native of North Carolina, whence he removed to Ohio with his parents, and
on attaining his majority he removed to Wayne county, Indiana, becoming one
of its earliest settlers.  In 1840 he came to LaPorte county, where he spent
his remaining days, and here as in other localities in which he lived he
always followed the occupation of farming.
   Jason Osborn, the father of Frank E. Osborn, was born in Wayne county,
Indiana, and came with his parents to LaPorte county in 1840, the family
home being established in Clinton township.  After his marriage he purchased
a farm just across the line in Porter county, a part of it also lying in
LaPorte county.  He was a successful man and lived continuously upon his
farm until 1901, when he retired from active business life and took up his
residence in the town of Wanatah, LaPorte county, where he died on the 1st
of February, 1903.  In his early manhood he had wedded Eliza C. Graham, who
was born in the southern part of Indiana and is now living at Wanatah.  Her
people were from Virginia, and her father was at one time a slave-owner
there.
   Frank E. Osborn attended the country schools and also the academy at
Wanatah.  He pursued a general course of study in the Northern Indiana
Normal College at Valparaiso in 1875-6, and previous to entering that
institution and for two years subsequent to his course there he engaged in
teaching school.  Mr. Osborn took up the study of law under the direction of
W.E. Pinney at Valparaiso, who directed his reading for six months, after
which he went to Ann Arbor, Michigan, and was for one year a student in the
law department of the Michigan State University there.  On the expiration of
that period he came to LaPorte and entered the law office of ther firm of
Weir & Biddle in April, 1879.  He applied himself assiduouly<sic> to the
mastery of the principles of jurisprudence, and in November, 1880, was
admitted to the bar, although he continued with the firm of Weir & Biddle
until the 1st of January, 1882.  He then entered into partnership with David
J. Wile, which relation was maintained until the 1st of January, 1887.  Mr.
Osborn then practiced alone until 1891, when he entered into partnership
with John C. Richter, now circuit judge, being thus associated in his
business two years.  He then practiced alone again until May, 1896, when he
formed a partnership with H.W. Salwasser, which continued until 1901, and he
is now alone in the general practice of law, having the largest clientage of
any member of the bar at LaPorte.  His work is conducted systematically and
carefully, enabling him to accomplish a very large amount of business.  He
has an experienced assistant aiding him in preparing pleadings and to make
researches into law cases and other details, thus allowing Mr. Osborn to
devote his time to the more important features of his practice.  He is a
very energetic, hard-working man, resourceful and successful, and as a
lawyer he ranks among the best in the state.  Above pettifogging or
chicanery, he conducts his cases earnestly, honestly and skilfully.  He is
an impressive and logical reasoner, well grounded in the principles of law,
quick to grasp the points in the case and adroit in presenting them.
   On the 18th of January, 1882, was celebrated the marriage of Mr. Osborn
and Miss Elizabeth Clark, a representative of one of the old families of
LaPorte county.  Her grandfather, Marcena Clark, located here at a very
early day.  To Mr. and Mrs. Osborn have been born four sons: Lee L., who is
a graduate of the high school and now at the age of twenty years is
preparing for the bar at Ann Arbor; Gordon C., aged seventeen years; Kenneth
D., a youth of thirteen years; and F. Leslie, who at the age of eleven
completes the family.
   Mr. Osborn owns one of the finest residences in LaPorte and also some
valuable farm property in the county.  In his political views he has always
been a Republican, but never an aspirant for office.  He was at one time
appointed deputy prosecuting attorney, but otherwise has held no public
office.  Prominent in the Odd Fellows society, he has been a trustee of his
lodge for nearly twenty years, and was acting in that capacity when the Odd
Fellows building was erected in LaPorte.  He also held membership with the
Knights of Pythias fraternity and the Benevolent & Protective Order of Elks.
He has proved himself, in all the relations of life, an earnest, honest,
upright man and a citizen of whom any community might justly feel proud.

   [See an 1892 bio. of Franklin Osburn-1601]
   [See the bio. of Robert Dudley Osburn-1611]

   FRANKLIN OSBURN, retired, Sewickley, is a native of Loudoun county, Va.
The Osburn family are descended from an old English family, who came to
America long before the revolutionary war, and settled on Long Island and in
and about New York.  The ancestors of the Virginia branch, John and Nicholas
Osburn, emigrated from Chester county, Pa., about 1730, and settled in the
Shenandoah valley, Va., in the present county of Clarke, but were driven
across the Blue Ridge in 1756, by the French and Indians, locating at the
foot of the mountain on the east side.  Here and in the adjacent country the
name has been continuous since, and has been honorably known in the
legislative halls of the state and in state conventions, notably that which
passed the ordinance of secession on the 17th day of April, 1861.  It is
proper to note that the member from Jefferson county restated the secession
movement throughout.  Richard Osburn, the grandfather of our subject, and
the latter's parents, were born in Loudoun county, Va. Franklin Osburn was
educated in his native state,and early engaged in teaching; was then in
mercantile line; then in the lumber business in Allegheny, and also in
farming in the Shenandoah valley, in Virginia, the latter twenty years, and
in cotton-manufacturing in Steubenvil1e, Ohio, three years.  He married
Henrietta W., a daughter of Griswold E. Warner, a citizen of this county,
better known as Judge Warner.  Ten children have blessed this union, eight
of whom are now living: James W., Frank C., Jennie M. Olmsted, Mary E.,
Harry G., Robert D., William W. and Chara Louise W.  Politically Mr. Osburn
was a whig before the reconstruction policy of the dominant party after
the war became known.  Has since been an independent democrat.  The
adjoining borough of Osborn was named after our subject.

DR. GEORGE A. OSBORNE.
   Dr. George Augustus Osborne, a retired physician of South Bend and a
citizen of high repute is a native of Indiana, and was born at Madison,
February 28, 1823.  His father, Isaac Osborne, was a native of New Jersey,
and settled in Ohio where he practiced medicine and was also engaged in
trade on the Ohio river.  His mother, Sarah (Pardee) Osborne, came of early
colonial stock and was a native of Connecticut.  The subject of this sketch
lived at Madison until he was nearly two years old, when his parents
removed to Waynesville, Ohio, about forty miles from Cincinnati, where he
lived until 1828, and though but five years of age still remembers the
election of General Jackson in that year.  His people next moved to Clinton
County, Ohio, and young Osborne received his education in a log school house
and by private instruction from his parents.  He next went to Wilmington,
Ohio, where he resided until 1846.  When eighteen years of age, with his
brother, William Osborne, he bought a saw mill at Port William, Ohio, which
he conducted for a year or two, and in 1849 he removed to Wabash, Ind., and
bought land and erected a log cabin.  For this property he paid $275.00, and

Holland, Ind., and opened a general store, and also bought a general store
at Markel, Ind.  He remained in the mercantile business about two years,

Bio. of George C. Orsburn


   Biographical and Historical Memoirs of Southern Arkansas, Chicago,
   The Goodspeed Publishing Co., 1890.  (Clark Co.)  Page 157.  (transcript)

   George C. Orsburn.  Among the tillers of the soil of this region none
hold a more prominent place in the estimation of the people than he whose
name heads this sketch, for he is honest, industrious, enterprising and
consequently successful.  He was born in Dallas County, Ala., in 1845, to
Jabez J. and Elizabeth (Eaves) Orsburn, who were born in North Carolina and
Mississippi, the former's birth occurring in 1812.  At the age of seven
years he was taken by his parents to Alabama, and there he was married and
made his home until 1848, when he emigrated westward to Clark County, Ark.,
and settled on a small improved farm west of Arkadelphia, where he and his
wife spent the rest of their days.  The former died in 1883, but is still
survived by his widow, she being a member of the Missionary Baptist Church,
of which he was also a member.  Mr. Orsburn was very fond of hunting, but
was never known to neglect domestic affairs to gratify his tastes in this
direction.  George C. Orsburn was the third of six sons and five daughters,
all of whome are living, the youngest being now twenty-one years of age.
Before a death had occurred, that family had increased to thirty-six
members, including grandchildren.  The subject of this sketch assisted his
father on the home farm and attended the common-schools, but in 1863 put
aside his farming implements to swell the ranks of the Confederate army, and
was first a member of Capt. Reed's State Troops, participating in the
engagements at Marks Mill and Poison Springs.  At the end of this year he
joined the regular army, Gen. Cabbel's Cavalry Company, but returned to his
home at the end of hostilities and has since devoted his attention to
farming.  The daughter of Col. John and Frances McNeill became his wife in
1868, her name being Mary, and to them six children were born of whom three
sons and one daughter are living.  She was born in Clark County, Ark., and
her father and mother were born in North Carolina and Alabama, respectively,
but came to Clark County, Ark., when young, and here afterward made their
home, the mother dying in 1867.  The father is now living in Dallas County,
having followed the occupation of a miller all his life.  He served for some
time in the late war, being a member of a cavalry company, acting in the
capacity of colonel.  Mr. Orsburn has resided on the farm on which he is now
making his home since 1873.  It consists of 160 acres, eighty of which are
under cultivation, and is situated about three and one-half miles southeast
of Okolona.  Mr. Orsburn is a Democrat, and his wife is a member of the
Presbyterian Church.


Bio. of George H. Osborn


   History of Pottawattamie County, Iowa, Chicago, The S.J. Clarke
   Publishing Co, 1907.  Vol. II, page 1032.  (transcript)  (Bio. is
   accompanied by a photograph of James W. Osborn and wife.)
   [See the bio. of James Henry Osborn]
   [See the bio. of O.E. Osborn]

GEORGE H. OSBORN.
   One of the best known and prominent stock breeders of Pottawattamie
county is George H. Osborn, the proprietor of the Pleasant Hill Stock Farm
situated on section 29, Hazel Dell township.  Here he is engaged in the
breeding of high grade shorthorn cattle, having at the head of his herd the
noted bull, King Gloster, No. 267768.  It was upon this farm that Mr. Osborn
was born December 2, 1874.  He is yet a comparatively young man but has
already attained a measure of success which many of the older residents of
the community might well envy.  His father, James W. Osborn, was born in
Virginia, February 2, 1827, and was a son of George and Milanda (Goodwin)
Osborn, who were likewise natives of the Old Dominion.  The father, whose
birth occurred April 13, 1780, died at his old home near Winchester,
Virginia, while the battle was being fought in that vicinity during the
period of the Civil war.  He had long survived his wife, who was born
December 3, 1789, and passed away on the 11th of October, 1845.
   James W. Osborn acquired his education in the subscription schools of
Virginia but though his educational privileges were limited he became a man
well posted on all questions of general interest and the affairs of the day.
As a business man he was occupied with farming interests and kept in touch
with the general progress which has been manifest in agricultural lines.  He
became a farmer, following that pursuit in the south during the years of his
early manhood, while later he removed to Missouri, settling near St. Joe.
In 1865 he took up his abode in Pottawattamie county, Iowa.  Here he
purchased a tract of land on section 29, the old home, Hazel Dell township.
It was improved to only a very limited degree but with characteristic energy
he began its further development and cultivation, transforming the wild
prairie into richly productive fields that annually returned to him golden
harvests.  The first morning that he saw the farm was on the 15th of April,
1865, the day after the assassination of President Lincoln.  As the years
passed he accumulated a large estate, making judicious investments in
property and winning for himself a place among the substantial residents of
the county.  In early manhood James W. Osborn was married to Miss Margaret
Ester, a native of Baltimore, Maryland, born February 23, 1834.  Her parents
were John and Susan Byard (Perkins) Ester, the former a native of Ireland,
who was born in 1802 and died in 1864.  The mother's birth occurred in 1802
and she was called to her final rest in 1853.  This worthy couple were
active and devoted members of the Methodist Episcopal church at Hazel Dell
and their lives were in harmony with their professions, for they attempted
to do good to all men, to live at peace with their friends and neighbors and
to extend the influence and work of the church as opportunity offered.  The
death of the father occurred in June, 1901, and the mother passed away in
April, 1900.  Unto this worthy couple were born nine children, as follows:
O.E., an agriculturist of Hazel Dell; J.H., who resides at Indianola, Iowa;
Charles E., deceased; Albert W., of Watertown, Nebraska; Susan M., who is
the widow of Robert Prentice and resides at Hazel Dell; Lillian, the wife of
Frank Roosa, of Boulder, Colorado; George H., of this review; Margaret, the
wife of Charles Hough, of Hazel Dell township; and Hunter, residing in
Council Bluffs.
   George H. Osborn has always made his home upon the old farm which was his
playground in early boyhood and his training school in youth.  He came into
possession of two hundred acres at the time of his father's death and after
the division of the property he continued to reside upon the old homestead,
which is improved with excellent buildings which were put there by his
father.  In tilling the soil he has displayed keen business discernment and
annually gathers rich crops as the reward of his labor.
   On Christmas day of 1901 Mr. Osborn was united in marriage to Miss
Lillian Driver, who was born in Boomer township, and they have one child,
Howard D.  The young couple are much esteemed in the community where they
live, having the warm regard of all with whom social or business relations
have brought them in contact.  They are members of the Methodist Episcopal
church, loyal to its interests, and Mr. Osborn is connected with the Modern
Woodmen camp at Crescent.  He belongs to one of the old and prominent
families of this part of the state, where the name Osborn has figured in
connection with the business development and with the intellectual and moral
progress for more than four decades.

GEORGE N. OSBORNE, general agent of the Montana Central Railway, at Basin,
was born at Wayne, Erie county, Pa., on June 5, 1865.  He is the son of Dr.
Robert J. and Caroline (Newton) Osborne.  The father was a hospital staff
doctor and veteran of the Mexican war.  The paternal grandfather was James
Osborne, a native of Ireland, who came to America prior to the war of the
Revolution, and, it is supposed, settled at Lancaster, Pa., for the war
records at Washington show that he enlisted from Lancaster in June, 1776, as
a private in Capt. Stephens' company of Col. North's Pennsylvania Regiment,
and served until December, 1780, when he was discharged from the service by
Col. Richard Butler on account of a wound in his arm, received at
Germantown, Pa.  During his active service he participated in the
engagements at Trenton, Princeton and Bergen Point, N.J., and those at
Brandywine and Germantown, Pa.
   The elementary education of George N. Osborne was received in the public
schools of his native township.  This was supplemented by a course in the
Corry high school, and in 1882 he entered the Edinburg (Pa.) normal school,
from which he was graduated in 1885 with honors.  In that year Mr. Osborne
engaged with the Erie Railroad, first as office clerk and later as telegraph
operator.  In 1887 he resigned his position and came west, believing that he
could thereby materially better his financial condition, and it is
undoubtedly true that he has done so.  He at first entered the service of
the Great Northern at Norwich, N.D.  He remained there and at other points
on the Great Northern only a short time but was stationed at Michigan City
in the same capacity for seven years.  In 1897 he took a much needed
vacation, visiting his old home in Pennsylvania.
   In the spring of 1898 he removed to Montana and became superintendent of
the Lewistown & Great Falls Telephone Company.  In 1899 he was appointed
agent of the Montana Central, at Teton, Choteau county.  He was also
commissioned postmaster at that place.  In April, 1900, he was transferred
to Basin, Jefferson county, and he has since resided there, serving in that
capacity and performing his duties in a manner satisfactory to both the
railroad and its patrons.  On August 13, 1888, Mr. Osborne was married to
Miss Lizzie N. Cleeland, of Breckenridge, Minn.  She was a scholarly woman
and a teacher, the daughter of William N. Cleeland, a jeweler and machinist,
now of Great Falls.  Their family circle is enlarged by three children,
Robert G.C., George N., Jr., and Clarence M.  Mr. Osborne was for two years
corresponding secretary of the state society of the Sons of the American
Revolution of North Dakota.  He belongs to the Masonic order at Corry, Pa.,
in lodge, chapter and commandery, and is a noble of El Zagel Temple of the
Mystic Shrine at Fargo, N.D.  He is a gentleman highly esteemed in his home
community and one of the most popular citizens of Basin.

   [See the bio. of M.H. Osburn]

   GEORGE W. OSBURN, M.D. The life of the popular, successful physician is
one of incessant toil, self-denial and care, yet all true followers of the
"healing art" strive to attain prominence in their profession, regardless of
added burdens which will rest upon their shoulders.  Such a man is George W.
Osburn, who was born in Gwinnett County, Ga., November 5, 1841, a son of
Ectyl and Cynthia (Nelson) Osburn (see sketch of Dr. M.H. Osburn).  George
W. attended the common schools of Georgia, was brought up to the healthy and
useful life of the farmer, and when the great Civil War came up was forced
into the Confederate service, but shortly after managed to make his escape
and refugeed to Ohio, making his home in Cincinnati from 1863 to 1864, when
he went to Chicago, later to the city of New York, and then back again to
Chicago, where he made his home until 1868.  He was engaged in carpentering
and helped to build many of the early houses of that city.  In 1868 he
became a resident of Berry County, Mo., but two years later located at
Thornfleld, in Ozark County, and in 1871 on the farm where he now lives in
Douglas County, ten miles south of Ava.  His farm consists of 690 acres, and
he has now 200 acres under cultivation, although but small improvement had
been made on the place at the time of his purchase.  His farm is an
exceptionally valuable one, and is especially well adapted to stockraising,
to which much of his attention is devoted.  In 1868 he began the study of
medicine with his brother Dr. M.H. Osburn, and in 1871 began practicing that
profession in Douglas County, and has met with a more than ordinary degree
of success.  He has had many very difficult cases under his control, has
handled them with skill and ability, and is a very popular practitioner in
the south and west part of the county and in Ozark County.  He has always
been a stanch Republican in politics, has held the office of coroner for
several years, and is popular with his party.  He was married in July, 1872,
to Miss Mary E. Gilliland, a daughter of S.L. and Mary (Grithfus) Gilliland,
who were born in Tennessee, the former being a son of Alexander Gilliland, a
native of South Carolina, who was probably a soldier of the War of 1812.
The Gillilands are of Scotch-Irish descent and the family is an old one in
this country.  Mrs. Osburn's maternal grandfather, John Grithfus, was a
South Carolinian also, and at a very early day located in Greene County,
Mo., where he died in 1841.  Mrs. Osburn had one sister, Sarah, who was the
wife of N.S. Imes, of Greene County, but she and her husband are both dead.
After the death of Mr. Gilliland, his widow married T.J. Hawkins, who is
living in Stone County, Mo., and died in 1856, after having borne Mr.
Hawkins one child, George.  Mrs. Osburn was reared and educated in Greene
County, and has borne her husband five children: Minnie, born October 17,
1874; Clarence, born June 19, 1880; Maude, born February 21, 1882; Victor,
who died at the age of five years, and another child that died in infancy.
The Doctor and his wife are among the substantial people of the county, and
in a business as well as professional way he has been remarkably successful.

GEORGE W. OSBORN.
   There are individuals in nearly every community who, by reason of
pronounced ability and force of character, rise above the heads of the
masses and command the unbounded esteem of their fellow men.  Characterized
by perserance and a directing spirit, two virtues that never fail, such men
always make their presence felt and the vigor of their strong personalities
serves as a stimulus and incentive to the young and rising generation.  To
this energetic and enterprising class George W. Osborn very properly
belongs.  Mr. Osborn has devoted himself to his adopted profession and to
the public duties to which he has been called, and, because of his personal
worth and his accomplishments, he is clearly entitled to representation
among the enterprising and progressive men of his locality.  Mr. Osborn is
an efficiently trained lawyer and has the background of a practical
education, having taken the five-year literary and law course offered by the
Indiana State University at Bloomington.  Since engaging in the practice of
his profession in his home county he has rapidly forged to the front and in
the fall of 1912 was elected prosecuting attorney for this county, assuming
this office January 1, 1913.
   George W. Osborn, the son of David S. and Hannah (Roberts) Osborn, was
born October 20, 1879, on a farm in Marion county, Indiana.  Both of his
parents were born in Marion county, his grandfather, John Osborn, being born
in Virginia in 1771.  John Osborn was one of the earliest pioneers of Marion
county, Indiana, where he died in 1875, having reached the unusual age of
more than one hundred years.  Jacob Roberts, the father of Hannah Roberts,
mother of George W. Osborn, was born in Ohio county, Pennsylvania, in 1800
and was one of the early pioneers of Marion county.  His father,
John Roberts, entered nine hundred and sixty acres of land in Marion county
near the city of Indianapolis.  Both families were prominent in the early
history of Marion county and among the most substantial citizens of the
county.  David Osborn and his family moved from Marion county to Hamilton
county in 1882, settling on a farm in Clay township, where David Osborn
engaged in farming until his death February 26, 1894, his wife dying August
31, 1904.  David Osborn was a Democrat in politics and a man who was always
interested in the welfare of his community, being a citizen who stood high
in the estimation of his fellowmen.  He and his wife were both loyal members
of the German Lutheran church.
   George W. Osborn was about three years of age when his parents moved from
Marion county to Hamilton county and since that time he has been a
continuous resident of this county.  He attended the schools of his home
township and later was graduated from the Zionsville high school with the
class of 1901.  He at once entered Indiana University and took the combined
literary and law course, graduating from that institution on June 20, 1906.
He was admitted to the practice of law in January, 1907, and on February 4
of that year he opened his office for practice in Sheridan in this county.
His ability as a lawyer is widely recognized and during the years he has
been identified with the legal history of this county he has been connected
with many of the most important cases tried in the local court.  His
learning, capacity, aptitude and persistency are readily recognized and his
friends prophesy that he will be favored with many additional honors in the
future.  He has an unblemished record, having always been upright and
honorable in all his relations with his fellow men and has set a worthy
example of the public-spirited, honest, energetic and wholesome citizen whom
the public delight to reward and honor.  Affiliated with the Democratic
party he has been active in its councils in this county and has been honored
by this party on several occasions.  He has been town attorney for the
corporation of Sheridan for several years and in the summer of 1912 was
nominated by his party for the office of prosecuting attorney of Hamilton
county.  He was elected in November, 1912, to this office and assumed its
duties January 1, 1913.  Because he has an earnest and conscientious desire
to apply his legal knowledge impartially he has gained the confidence and
respect of the attorneys of the county as well as of the public he has
served in his capacity of state's attorney.  He is always master of himself
in the trial of cases and is rarely not at his desk.  He is courteous and
deferential to the court and kind and forbearing to his opponents.  As a
speaker he is direct, logical and not infrequently, truly eloquent.  He is
not only an able and reliable counselor of jurisprudence, but his honesty is
unimpeachable and his official career has been animated only by those lofty
motives which should actuate every good American citizen.
   Mr. Osborn was married December 23, 1908, to Bessie S. Kercheval, the
daughter of Robert G. and Anna (Davis) Kercheval of Sheridan, and to this
union have been born two sons, John R. and George W., Jr.  The wife and
mother died March 29, 1913.  She was an amiable woman of pleasing
personality and her kindly deeds and loving ministrations will be long
remembered by those with whom she was associated.  Mr. Osborn is a member of
the Free and Accepted Masons, the Knights of Pythias and the Improved Order
of Red Men.  In his church affiliations he is an earnest member of the
Christian church.  He is one of those strong, sturdy men who are a positive
benefit to their community and consequently his name well deserves a place
in the record of Hamilton county's representative citizens.

   H.S. OSBORNE, publisher of the Bedford Magnet, was born in Toronto,
Canada, November 8, 1849, the youngest of four children, one yet living,
born to John and Lydia (Jones) Osborne, both of whom died in Canada when
H.S. was yet a mere lad.  Until sixteen years old he resided with his
paternal grandfather, the two succeeding years being passed at Trinity
College in Toronto.  On the death of his grandmother he inherited property
in his native city which he exchanged for property on the Humber River, the
product of which was largely used as rubble stone for macadamizing.  Owing
to inexperience and mismanagement he soon lost his quarries.  In 1878 he
located in Cincinnati, Ohio, where for a time he was connected with a
dramatic company, and as such traveled extensively over the Southern and
Middle States.  The fall of 1876 he located at Bedford, Ind., where for a
number of months he ws employed as a typo on the Bedford Banner.  For about
one year, beginning in 1877, he published the Owensburg Gazette, then
purchasing the material he removed the office to Bedford, and in company
with C.L. Yockey published the Banner for two months.  Early in the fall of
1878 he began issuing the Daily Magnet, then a four-column folio, which
shortly thereafter was merged into tri-weekly, then a semi-weekly, and
finally to a five-column folio weekly.  The weekly Magnet has ever since
continued, but with prosperity it has changed from its first weekly
appearance respectively to a six-column, then a seven-column, and lastly to
its present size, a five-column quarto.  Mr. Osborne first began in the
printing business a poor man, but by diligence and economy he has cleared
his paper of all encumbrances, and now issues one of the newsiest papers of
Lawrence County.  In politics he has faithfully advocated the principles of
the Republican party, and as a journalist is esteemed by all his
cotemporaries.  To his marriage with Miss Annie S. McCormick, which was
solemnized in 1877, two children were born, named Edith B. and Roy H.  Mr.
Osborne is now engaged in the publication of the Lawrence Mail, into which
the Magnet was merged.
