At the time this newspaper is facing one loss in the departure of a kindly and co-operating friend, it experiences another in the passing of A. G. Eidemiller, former county recorder. Mr. Eidemiller was a man of high character and many will be the tributes paid to him for his good qualities and his civic enthusiasm, but this newspaper remembers him more distinctly as one who was ever helpful and considerate and whose assistance was not motivated by any desire except to be helpful and to assist in securing accuracy. Few if any Miami countians of this generation had a wider acquaintanceship throughout the county and as a consequence he was often in a position to learn early of happenings of public interest. During his service as county recorder he could always be depended upon to pass along news items which came to his attention and was always helpful with information and suggestions. His passing is a loss to West Milton and the county and this newspaper feels it also has suffered a loss.
