Preacher, co-editor of Octographic Review, song writer, and author of "Button Wood and Other Poems." He wrote the words of the hymn "Blessed Angels"
In 1883 Daniel Sommer began editorial work on his own. Together with L. F. Bittle he started a small monthly paper called the Octograph. The name was coined by Bittle to denote the "writings of eight," referring to the eight writers of the New Testament. The paper was thus to be thoroughly apostolic. Bittle is one of those little-known heroes of the restoration. For a few years, while the Review was published by Franklin, he flamed into brilliance before the brotherhood in his opposition to the "digressive" tendencies. Among Review readers, he was extremely popular. -- Earl Irvin West, Search For The Ancient Order Vol. II, Chapter 14, pages 292-305.
