Witty snippets and society gossips from the era

A collage of light anecdotes and items from newspapers: cautions about fairs, fishing season, a playful bet about racing, marriage and social scenes, a preacher’s role, sports quips, Brazilian citizenship hints, graveyard quarrels, Dakota pride, a horseman’s payback, a 103 year old row, a trout named Truth, Chicago society intrigue, a Nebraska hog theft tale, and two Vermont old-timers at muster with a flies joke, all reflecting early 20th century social chatter.
