Description | The Bennington Banner and Reformer, tracing its roots back to the State Banner established in 1841 by prominent citizens including Congressman Hiland Hall, underwent several title variations over the years. With a focus on Whig and Republican positions, it evolved into the Bennington Banner in 1858. Merging with another paper in 1903, it became the Bennington Banner and Reformer, later transitioning to the Banner and Reformer. Family dominance characterized its management, notably under Frank E. Howe and his descendants, who infused the paper with local and regional news alongside historical coverage. Emphasizing Bennington's significance, it chronicled events like the 1777 Battle of Bennington and contributed to the town's cultural heritage. Despite the decline of its weekly edition in 1956, the daily paper remained a vital source of news for the region, reflecting Bennington's rich history and contemporary developments. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1903 of this newspaper. |
