Springfield Republican/1903/Postmaster Kinner 80 Years Old
Postmaster Kinner 80 Years Old.
Caleb D. Kinner, the veteran postmaster of Merrick, celebrated his 80th birthday yesterday. Mr. Kinner has completed 23 years of service in his present office. He went to West Springfield from Port Jefferson, New York, in 1876 and opened a drug store. When the Merrick post office was established in 1880, Kinner was made the first postmaster, and Merrick has to the present time known no other. Mr. Kinney has made an excellent postmaster, his every art having been characterized for his sterling integrity of character. His many friends wish him many more years of active public service.
