- Mellen Weekly, Ashland County, Wisconsin, September 18 1924.
"By courtesy of the Phillips Times, the pioneer newspaper of Price county since January 6, 1877, it is yet possible to trace those forerunners of the News Calumet, as well as other journalistic ventures in the southern part of Price county. The late F W Sackett (1847-1917) was founder of the Phillips Times and sometime mentor and partner with his younger brother, George E Sackett, who with the latter's son, Freeman, now owns and edits that paper. At the death of F W Sackett, he left many printed pages of an unfinished History of Price County."
[Freeman William Sackett & George Elmer Sackett, sons of Alzerah S Sackett & Sarah Ann Harbaugh]
