Errors and events from a 1862 Beaver Dam issue
A fragmentary 1862 Beaver Dam column corrects past misstatements about nominees and names in the Union ticket. It notes W. W. Woodworth as county treasurer, Judson Prentice, and Juneau dining anecdote, plus an inventor Evan Howe and a sewing machine pitch. It records a Dodge County Democratic Assembly Convention with McCottum nominated for State Assembly and a Beav er Dam notice from the Mutual Life Insurance Co praising the Jennings claim and urging life insurance benefits and local agents.
