Earthquake Tales and Pioneer Reminiscences From 1811
A fragmented reminiscence blends a 1811 earthquake in Massachusetts with Tippecanoe battle memories. It recalls Sedams farm as Harrison’s halt, chalk route plans, and old soldiers’ chats by fire. The piece shifts to fishing lore and a playful Q&A about flies and lemonade in summer.

Cris'' on Black Bass in April spring bass Q&A
A humorous printed circular from Dr. E. Sterling of Cleveland asks about black bass behavior and fishing timing. Gris answers in a gossiping tone, noting spring arrival, feeding, and preferred baits with colorful, though cheeky, asides and flares of commentary throughout a long, fragmentary column.
