Hanover Gazette Sold

The business of publishing the weekly Hanover Gazette, secret ambition of many a Hanover-loving alumnus, was undertaken by Earl S. Hewitt, of Enfield, N. H., with the issue of April 20. Mr. Hewitt has taken over the ownership from the estate of the late Frank A. Musgrove, under which the Dartmouth Press is still being conducted.

Mr. Hewitt, a graduate of Tufts in 1916, was a member of the New Hampshire State Legislature from 1929 until his resignation in 1932, and before that he had wide experience as a preparatory school teacher at St. Paul's, St. George's, Groton and Tabor, and as an investment dealer in Enfield.

Mr. Hewitt is but the fourth owner of the Gazette since its founding in 1885. Linwood C. Gillis took over the ownership from P. H. Whitcomb in 1893 and in 1899 transferred it to Frank A. Musgrove, the predecessor of Mr. Hewitt.
