The Truro Daily News was launched on 19 January, 1891, and after a few hectic months, was taken over by Frank A. and John Doane. The Truro Weekly News was started by Frank Doane in 1892, and it continued as a rural paper until the 1970`s. Three other long time partners joined the staff in the 1890`s and Doane Brothers Printing Company was amalgamated to form `The News Publishing Company`` with W.D. Dimock, editor; F.A. Doane, manager of job printing department; J.W. Doane, mechanical superintendant; J.F. Coffin, book keeper; and A.R. Coffin, advertising and subscription manager.
