John L. Vance
Gallipolis, Ohio
A.D. 1839 A.D. 1921
He served untiringly as president of
the Ohio Valley Improvement Association
for more then a quarter of a century
and weary with the weight of the years
he passed on, bequeathing to others the
rich harvest to be gleaned from his
strenuous and faithful labors
much is due the memory of such a man
whose vision has now been realized
“where there is no vision the people perish”
