YAPHANK COURIER
1890-1891

The Yaphank courier was a local newspaper printed from 1890-1891. A copy of the microfilm was acquired from the State Library and has been given to the Longwood Public Library.

The Courier consisted of four pages and its format size was 6in. x 9in. When this journalistic venture made its debut, the citizens of Yaphank were justly proud of the efforts of its publisher, W. L. Denton.

Mr. Denton was also the editor and among other things he had this to say respecting the purpose of his newspaper "The Yaphank Courier is to be issued every Thursday from June 1 until September1, 1891. Price 10 cts. in advance. Its object is to promote the social, intellectual, moral and religious welfare of Yaphank and its vicinity. Items of interest solicited."

All of the newspapers were typed by Mrs. Diane Arcardi, a media assistant specialist at the Middle School.
