Odd Tales and Local Sights From A Turbulent Era
A Vermont town reports a partial lytic shock in Mrs. Palford during church, a Madrid house struck by lightning with a suspect water watch, a drowned man in Philadelphia in an oilskin coat, and a buried body case in Wilmington. Nearby there is a dramatic hawk and snake scene near Buena Vista, freedmen baptisms in Petersburg, and a deaf mute’s baptism. A Tampa paper recounts a lost boy found with hair on his body among cattle, while a Bridgeport dog rides a locomotive and a Cheyenne skull tale captivates onlookers. A Chicago court swiftly convicts a bookkeeper who bled his firm dry, and a Brahma hen egg puzzle spurs debate.
