Valuable Books Given Away Eluding the Conductor
A fragment from Smithville Ga News describes a crowd at the Mc Afee House watching a tramp concealed in a box car slide out through a small window to the surprise of onlookers. The oddly staged scene ends with the man safely making his way to the ground amid laughter and astonishment. The page also lists a lengthy catalog of magazines and subscription prices, noting no multiple-magazine deliveries to a single address and requesting subscription details to begin.
