Marshall's Old Main in a historic photograph.

January 13, 2009 @ 10:31 AM

On Sunday, Jan. 17, 1909, the first edition of The Herald-Dispatch hit the streets in Huntington, and we are celebrating the 100th anniversary of that event in 2009. The rise of Marshall University is just one of the top news events we've covered for the past 100 years.

Check out our 100 Years site at http://www.herald-dispatch.com/specialsections/100years, and be sure to pick up a copy of our 100th Anniversary Commemorative Edition on Saturday, Jan. 17.
