THE FIRST NEWSPAPER

The first paper published in Elmira, the Elmira Anzieger, was established in 1869 by the Delion Bros., Fred and William. They continued for thirteen years when it was purchased by Mr. George Beaver, some time in 1883 Two years later it became the property of Charles Delion who published it until 1895 when Messrs. Henry Delion and Casper Ziegler purchased the plant. The latter firm then established the Elmira Advertiser which has been a success from the beginning. Mr. Chas. Delion is editor and manager. They are getting out a clean, spicy paper, and therefore deserve the hearty support of the people of this section.

Notes:

DELION, FREDERICK was the founder of a family in the New World who was born in what was then Prussia in 1809.

He was first mentioned in a wedding announcement in the Deutsche Canadier on February l844, when he married Magdalena Kühn, of Waterloo.

The issue of February 23, 1844 of the same paper had his professional card:

Dr. Fr. Delion formerly living at Mr. John Eby's, later at Mr. H. Baumann's in Waterloo, has just moved to the house of Mr. Bossenberger, Greenbush, next to Pastor Bindemann.

A news item on January 28, 1848 tells us that he treated his sister-in-law, Miss Salome Kühn for a tapeworm 1/8 to l/4 inches wide - doubtless interesting reading for her neighbors.

Dr. Gottfried H. Schmutter, a recently arrived German physician, distributed handbills containing a virulent attack on Delion, as well as on Dr. John Scott. The injured parties and the newspaper published rebuttals which responded in kind. In the face of the enmity he had aroused, Schmutter soon left for other parts.

Delion's response was in the February 11th. issue of Der Deutsche Canadier:

Notice

With regard to a public slander about me and another person, from one known as Smutter, in a poster issued by him for distribution, I take the liberty only to explain that this malicious attack against my private life has nothing to do with my practice as a physician, and that in regard to my knowledge as physician, I leave that to the public to decide. That Smutter's poster is an imitation and pretense of the truth from beginning to end, that a malicious character and half deranged intellect has gathered, everyone should perceive for himself.

He made considerable use of the newspapers, notifying the public with regard to daily visits to Waterloo, cautioning of court actions for delinquint accounts, warning trespassers off his property, and admonishing those who had borrowed his books without returning them. He had what must have been a substantial library, some parts of which are still retained by members of his family.

An outspoken announcement appeared in the issue of April 8, 1852 of Der Deutsche Canadiert

I hereby announce that henceforth I will permit medicines to be given out only at my home. The reason therefor may be seen daily at any time in the unpleasant and disagreeable state to be met with in Mr. Henry 'Baumann's house in Berlin.

On January 28, 1853 His card in the Berlin Telegraph gave his location as Woolwich, near Kressler's Tavern. From this time on he conducted a rural practice near Heidelberg, expanding his interests to include some veterinary practice, as is evidenced by one volume of his library which deals with veterinary homeopathy.

He died on October 21, 1869, but the notice provided only the fact of his death. In the case of his wife however, some information is found. She was born in Alsace in 1825, and married in 1844. Some time after his death she moved to Elmira where she lived for twenty five years, until 1907. Of their children still alive were three sons, Frederick, Charles and Henry.
