History
Essay Draft
According to his memoirs, Miller Freeman had only $3.00 and a bicycle when he decided to start his own newspaper in 1897. At the age of twenty-one, Miller was the last of his siblings to leave shadow of his father, Legh Freeman, who had published numerous small papers while moving the family westward. Miller had learned printing while working on the
Frontier Index and most recently
Freeman's Farmer, and political organ devoted to the ideas of Williams Jennings Bryant.
