Who's who and what's what?
A glimpse of Fairmount in 1907.

This book holds descriptions, strictly in rhyme,
Rich accounts of old Fairmount's earliest times.
Filled with illustrious names that everyone knew,
You will learn where they worked, and how they all grew.
Every enterprise bustled back in that day,
Hotels, food, and drug stores, and places to pray.
There were banks, there were lawyers and good doctors too.
Fairmount had everything needed to grow and to thrive,
and four major railroads to keep it alive.
