Late 19th Century Miscellany Highlights and Oddities
A scatter of condensed items spans politics and society from pale penchants to oddities. New York boasts 100 lady doctors while California abolishes grace days. Tidbits cover pensions to a Tolled death, a wagon of toys to Scotland, and bizarre notes on Bates, Kingsbury, and a Tepic war.
