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.
