Quips and Oddities From a 19th Century Paper

A collage of humorous snippets cites outrageous claims about sheep in Colorado and owls in New Jersey, remarks on manners and attire, and stray notes on cards, fur cloaks, and kissing corpses. The tone mocks fashion, politics, and social habits with playful paradox.
