C. Chandler & Co.'s Business Directory For Indiana HARTFORD CITY. The county seat of Blackford county contains a population of about one thousand, has two churches, schools, and the necessary stores, shops, etc. Its want of railroad communication has heretofore prevented its rapid growth, but the completion of the Columbus, Chicago & Indiana Central railroad, giving it a direct outlet east and west, has given it an impetus, and it now bids fair to become an important city.
