This last summer I was informed that, in his book, Henry Howe had written an
entry regarding Councilman Nicholas BURTSCHER, of Seneca County. I have
since tried to obtain the book through interlibrary loan, but have been

could be quoted for me. It is in his Volune 2, but I do not have the page
number(s). I will be watching for this entry in OH-FOOTSTEPS. My thanks.
