T.J. Mahan, first mayor of Follansbee, attended commencement exercises of Mt. Union College in Alliance, Ohio, this week. He was a student at that college fifty years ago. (Page 7)  The Mill Town Review reported that in June 1913, T.J. Mahan made an earlier trip to a commencement at Mt. Union with Mrs. Mahan and daughter, Miss Neil, and son, Stewart stopping over at Wooster and Alliance. The 1913 journey was made by auto.
