1935–2035 · EACH DATE WITH ITS VERDICT
A town's centennial line is a row of dates, and each date gets its verdict — celebrated, or not shown. 1935, the plat centennial: not shown. No observance of the hundredth year of the 1835 plat stands in any source this section reached. 1966, the incorporation centennial: not shown. The hundredth year of the 1866 incorporation — petitioned 7 June, voted 30 June, 44 to 6 — likewise leaves no observance in the record reached. 2016, the incorporation sesquicentennial: not shown in the fragments — the observance stands as the banked named gap GAP-NC5-ART-4, its settler the Tribune and Gazette runs for that year. 2026: the one anniversary performance the record does hold — the festival's 2026 edition staged as the town's America's-250th observance, carried in the arts file — a national birthday borrowed for a town edition, standing in the line because it is the only entry the line can date. 2035, the plat bicentennial: future, and printed as future. The line's sum is the town's anniversary discipline in one view: New Carlisle marks other people's centennials in its festival and has not, in the record reached, been shown marking its own.
