By Jennifer Zartman Romano
The Whitley County Historical Society's next Sunday afternoon program will include an opportunity to view this county and it's people through the collection of Dr. Orville Briggs.
Recently added to the collection of the Whitley County Historical Museum, the Briggs collection includes a broad spectrum of images including towns, the city, historic houses and structures, buildings, businesses and more as they were at the turn of the century. Briggs' collection shows many vantage points that no longer exist today.
The slideshow presentation of Briggs' collection will be shown in the Whitley County Historical Society's Annex Building on Sunday, October 9, 2011, at 2 p.m. Admission is free.
The Whitley County Historical Museum is located at 108 West Jefferson Street in Columbia City.
