    There were probably two phone companies operating at the time--without connection to each other. It seems improbable but I know it was true many places.

    I collect vintage soap boxes. I have one from the Pan-American Expo 1901 (N.Y.)(engraved souvenir), also engraved Dr. W. J. Sheldon, Springboro, Pa. I wonder if there's a connection?!
