Little Falls, NY

  • This day in history: November 1

    1891

    Forty-eight Italians arrived in Little Falls from Buffalo to work on the Little Falls – Dolgeville railroad.

    1893

    “Big Frank,” the little 90 pound kangaroo, which was to have boxed at the Star Academy, died in that building from cramps.

    1952

    Radio station WLFH broadcast a pre-election segment to supplement their coverage of the Get Out the Vote campaign which began on Oct. 8 with the mission of registering unregistered voters and continued through the month as this week’s Election Day approached. The program was a live broadcast from 6:30-6:45 hosted by committee chairperson, Edwin Marion, who summarized the efforts and interviewed 4 key volunteers in the campaign: Mrs. Frederika Conrad, Miss Inez McCoy, Chief Francis Reardon and Mr. Walter Sheff.

    • Many thanks to Louie Baum for his research for This Day in History.
