Rounds, Sterling Parker

printer, was born June 27, 1828, in Berkshire, Vt. He migrated to Chicago in 1851; and soon afterward opened a printers' warehouse. In 1856 the business was extended by the addition of the printers' electrotype foundry, and the first number of Rounds' Printers' Cabinet, still in existence, was issued. He was appointed public printer in 1881; but he removed to Omaha in 1885 and was identified with the Republican till his death. He died Dec. 17, 1887, in Omaha, Neb.
