Up to 1887 “The Sentinel" was a.
weekly publication, but in that year,
Mr. Golden published it an a. daily
and from ’that day on it has grown and
prospered.
During all the years of Mr. Golden's
apprenticeship he devoted considerable
time to study and when he took
charge of “The Sentinel" be soon
made bla personality felt in the com-
lnllnity in which the paper was issued
through the medium of his editorial
columns. His pen was a versatile one
and, those who have felt its weight
have had reason do remember it.
.dn the last twenty-ave years he
identified himself and his newspaper
with. the growth of South Norwalk.
The city’s welfare and prosperity hll
always been his dominating passion.
in many of his efforts to better the
conditions he has been criticised se-
verely by those of his fellow citizens
who disagreed with him. This, how-
.pyer. he always accepted as the inevi-
table, for the man has yet to be born
who has bad idea: of his own and
possessed the courage of his convic-
tions and who has not made one-
mies. ’
Not only has Mr. Golden identified
himself with the growth of the city
thrdugh his news and editorial col-
umns, but in a business way as well
He has been affiliated with many real
euiate transactions and had been one
of the prim. movers in many crusades
for a better and more prosperous city.
Mr. Golden had always been a suc-
cessful and carefullycalrulating busi-
