Matrimonial Runaway Faked Nuptials In Franklinewooty
A humorous wedding event in Franklinewooty featured a couple seeking a marriage for novelty. With town officials away, a local reverend spliced them together at a store, amid amused bystanders, crowning them Mr. and Mrs. S. W. Hall. The Leaner editor then visited Frank Parsons at his Montgomery area farm to praise his diverse horticulture and wine production. A health notice from T. A. Slocum offers a consumption cure and free bottle offer to readers.

Interesting Case Involving Sullivan Mortgage Deception
An affidavit charged Monroe Sullivan of Franklin county with obtaining money under false pretences after borrowing 200 dollars from the Commercial Bank to cover a supposed homestead mortgage. The land proved not to be Sullivan's, and the case bound him over to the Circuit Court in the sum of 200 dollars. The rest reads like a medical ad text about fevers and cures with Bilious specifics.
