Beaver Dam notes Rural Life and a Comet Visitor
In Beaver Dam, reports highlight excellent wheat weather and crop prospects, local civic notes, a vacant School Superintendent post after A Douglas resignation, and a city election to fill the vacancy. A comet seen in the north sky is linked to 1856 predictions, while Fourth of July celebrations bucked hard times with band music and a cut short boxing display deemed unsafe.
