The Enterprise, on Film at MPHPL

The Mishawaka Enterprise, 1858–2019 — the neighboring city's paper, held on the library's reels; this build's frame instrument and its largest unread settler

What it is: the Enterprise is Mishawaka's paper and Mishawaka's build owns it whole. For Granger it matters twice. First, as an instrument: the Newspapers leg's frame test ran on MPHPL's published county newspaper holdings list, which carries the county's papers by place of publication — Mishawaka, South Bend, New Carlisle, North Liberty, Walkerton — and carries no Granger title of any era; that list, not an impression, is the evidence for this section's founding negative. Second, as a settler: across 161 years the Enterprise covered the Penn–Harris ground at the edge of its circulation, and the item-level Granger course inside that film run is this build's named want (GAP-NEWS-7).

Its standing, from this build's experience: the film's existence and span (1858–2019) are holdings facts, printed from the library's own list. The Granger course inside it is unread, and the apparatus prints it as unread: a holding is a promise about where evidence lives, not evidence.

Where it fails: by geography and by labor. The paper's beat was Mishawaka's; Harris Prairie entered it as countryside news, unevenly — and 161 years of weekly film is a pull measured in weeks of reading, which is why GAP-NEWS-7 stands in the harvest with the News-Times run beside it rather than any claim resting on the film in this build.
