A WWI Diary That Never Was

WWI Diary was to have brought you the whole of World War I as it was reported in the papers of the day, exactly 100 years later. For a year I blogged news leading up to the big war, thinking if there was any real interest regular readers would trickle in. They did not. Count: zero. So I stopped blogging the war news. For students of the time, 1914-1918 editions are available on the Web as thousands of individual articles via a Times service called Spiderbites.

Sherman Not Dangerously Ill.

New York Times 100 years ago today, October 6, 1912:
Special to The New York Times.
UTICA, N. Y., Oct. 5.— Dr. F. H. Peck, Vice President Sherman's physician, says the report that Mr. Sherman is dangerously ill is untrue. Mr. Sherman returned yesterday from Connecticut, and the trip home tired him. He was fully rested to-day. He will take no part in the campaign. This was decided and announced some weeks ago.
