Scrapbook by Mr. Creager of news clippings of prominent Lancastrians, political figures including: Hagers, Steinmans, Thaddeus Stevens, Buchanan, Heine, and Sener families / compiled by Edwin Frank Creager.

Mr. Creager's focus was almost entirely on people. Although they were not all Lancastrians, he portrays the important men and women of the day through newspaper clippings, photographs, magazine articles, pictures from magazines and newspapers, and caricatures. Some of the photographs are labeled with names, but many of them have no identification. The more recognizable names found in the scrapbook are the Hagers, the Steinmans, Thaddeus Stevens, James Buchanan, and the Seners. A few articles are centered around the Lutheran Church of the Holy Trinity. There are also clippings about military assignments of local soldiers, both men and women, which were featured in the newspapers. Mr. Creager indexed the volume alphabetically by name.
