Mr. Rosenkrans has never sought office and this is the first time he has ever run for a city office. It is a genuine case of the office seeking the man," The following is from the Corunna Independent of April 1, 1898; "For Mayor W.A. Rosenkrans: Mr. Rosenkrans was born at Flint, Michigan, in 1864, and a few years afterward moved with his parents to Byron, Michigan, and graduated from the Byron High School in 1881 and from the Corunna public school with exceptionally high honors and was at once offered and accepted a position with the First national Bank in this city, with which institution he has remained until the present time, having, been promoted to the position of cashier of the bank in the year 1894, which position he now holds. He is also Secretary of the Board of Education and is at the present time one of the members of the Board of Public Works of this city. He is Treasurer of the Shiawassee Mutual Fire Insurance Company.
