Jefferson Davis to Attend Georgia State Fair Reunion

A 19th century notice reports ex President Jefferson Davis accepting an invitation to Macon for the State Fair and Old Soldiers Day. He will appear in a grand reunion of surviving ex Confederates on October 26 with reviews planned, health permitting, while crowds prepare to honor the Lost Cause leader. The piece shifts to unrelated items on whisky consumption trends and Dr Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, then mentions Elisha Gray’s auto-telegraphy claim and a distant telegraph autographic copy concept.
