All-Sorts and Social Snippets Across the Era
A mosaic of quick notes and quips, from politics and finance to crime and travel, with mentions of General Butler, Pinch, and Senator Jones. Reports touch on revenue plans, a $600 bond theft, a $3000 loss at a Troy fare bank, and local curiosities like tea parties in Weathersfield and a canal boat named for Wilkie Collins.
