Mr. Dorrance purchased the "Gazette" and changed the name to the "Citizen on the 15th of August, 1849. Mr. Dorrance subsequently sold the "Citizen" to C. V. DeLand, who published it for a number of years, and then sold it to Dr. W. C. Smith, and from him it passed in April, 1864, into the hands of Mr. Jas. O'Donnell, by whom it has been since published. The publication of the "Daily Citizen" was commenced by Mr. O'Donnell March 27, 1865, and was the first successful effort to publish a daily paper in Jackson.
