Fragmentary Verse Notes

A sparse, fragmented text fragment mentions kindness and contradiction with stray phrases like most a fact and fellow. It reads as a rough verse or marginal quotation with unclear provenance and few identifiable names or dates.

Curious Anecdotes and Local Skits From Burlington Hawkeye

A collage of quirky vignettes and comic snippets from the Burlington Hawkeye includes pickup lines about gas light in New York and Brooklyn scandal, a preacher racing boys, a baker with yeast jokes, and a Hungarian farmer misreading beehives. It also recounts a Dutchman miscommunication about horses, a churchyard prank, and a slapstick tale of a clumsy man in a kitchen during house cleaning. Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co. for Bolly All Druggists.
