In the Great Barrington Courier mortuary column four deaths are recorded with an average age above 91. A Connecticut court case exposes a stingy $1,800 annual clergy salary reduced to $600 for Rev. Worcester’s West Meriden Baptist services. A reader’s London to Boston query meanders through imagined delivery delays and cable timing, ending with a joke on transatlantic communication.

Letters of the People and reader queries from 1883
