Winter-Cast Notes From Bath and Vicinity

Frost eases and dry roads mark the area as Easter plans, Elks election, and local church events loom. Eggs sell for 20 cents a dozen in Gardiner while Harold Reed shoots three rabbits in Woolwich. Bath events include a opera night and a funeral for George Penner with Rev. Evans officiating. Mentions of tramps at the police station decline, and a grain of local social life appears through library fund whist, theater, and maritime notes about Miss Emma Magoon and the Marine Journal connection.
