Embalmed age dominates editorial chatter in Chipley
The note from Chipley Florida dated March 11 1899 cites Congress adjourning sine die and asks what McKinley will do while a Republican commentator derides Florida senators. It brushes aside depictions of embalmment horror and mocks poets on spring descriptions as well as calls for Alger's removal. The piece cites Leduc claiming sound speed 1088.58 feet per second and questions the McKinley administration’s responses.
