Byzantium Crescent Symbol and Early Ohio Mission
A mixed historical note traces the crescent symbol from Byzantium to Constantinople and its adoption by Byzantines after a failed Philip of Macedon siege. It mentions the 1788 sermon on the Muskingum by Rev William Bruck, and an English report of Dahomey planning human sacrifices to avert English indemnity enforcement.

Tichborne case endures in public stir and absurd claims
A long recitation on the Tichborne case notes public meetings in Wyde Park and parliamentary efforts to aid the claimant. It recounts a London law firm hiring to locate the Osprey wreck, a rumored Yennee captain, and a juror's plea for a new trial amid aristocratic hostility. The piece also retells a lurid stage anecdote about a murderer actor and a nailed skull revealing guilt.
