Louis Klopsch

Klopsch conducted various charitable fundraising drives through the Herald, raising over $4,000,000 for relief efforts worldwide.

His relief efforts for victims of the 1908 Messina earthquake were recognized by Victor Emmanuel III of Italy.

Klopsch received international awards for his efforts, including a gold Kaisar-i-Hind Medal from Edward VII for his work in India and the Order of the Rising Sun from Emperor Meiji of Japan.

He edited and published A Budget of Christmas Tales by Charles Dickens and others (1895) and Many Thoughts of Many Minds (1896), a book of quotations.

Published by Klopsch in 1901, the new Bible was a success, and the idea of printing Jesus' words in red became widely adopted.

Speakers included Episcopal bishop James Henry Darlington, Judge Arthur S. Tompkins, and Rev.
