Before you begin, enjoy a couple of quotes from Ohio newspapers of 1844.  Times have changed, many things remain the same.

QUOTES

MARRIAGE -
Tacitus says: --" Early marriage makes us immortal.  It is the soul and chief prop of empire.  That man who resolves to live without woman, and that woman who resolves to live without man, are enemies to the community in which they dwell, injurious to themselves, destructive to the whole world, apostate from nature, and rebels against Heaven and earth."
Defiance Democrat, Aug. 7, 1844
Defiance, Ohio

Democrats Beware.

We are credibly informed that some individuals are industriously traversing the district, particularly in Williams county, circulating the report that a compromise of the difficulties in this district, has been made in favor of J. G. Haley; and that he is the only Democratic candidate in the field.  They are coons in disguise.  We question whether their Mammas know they're out.
