From The Leader, February 19, 1903. Noticeably absent from these photos of "past and present" leaders of Brookhaven is Milton J . Whitworth, founder of Whitworth College. Also, former Mayor Lewinthal has been credited with building the first public school on the site where the present elementary school stands.
