A historic legend from Castile tells Don Munio Sancho de Hinojosa a fearless knight who captures Moorish captives, honors a Moorish bride, marries her, and vows to return to Jerusalem. He dies in battle at Salmanara while defending Castile, and his wife Maria Palacia mourns him. A vajais tale links his death to a spectral pilgrimage to Jerusalem.
A Division street wife, starved for kindling, used fifty five dozen clothes pins in two months to heat her home after her husband refused wood. When he finally faced the bill at a grocer’s, he realized the wife had ordered every pin and vowed to repay by cutting wood.

The tale sits alongside political notes from Connecticut on April elections and a Hawaiian treaty discussion, plus scattered brief items.
