<em>Weekly Echo</em>, edited and published by D. G. Gehman, Bally, Pennsylvania, was an 8-column, 4-page newspaper, 22 x 15.5 inches, with the stated purpose of supplementing the <em>Herald of Truth</em> by reporting news of particular interest to every Mennonite family and more particularly to Mennonites in eastern [[Pennsylvania (USA)|Pennsylvania]] and [[Washington County (Maryland, USA)|Washington County]], Maryland.
