Temperance and public notice stir in late 19th century town
A lengthy column recounts a temperance march, sermons, warnings on taverns, and debates over controversial performances. It condemns professional animal and drunkard acts, urges moral reform, and prints a local petition asking for restraint in anonymous correspondence. It also outlines an upcoming public school examination with invited patrons and lists visiting committees.
