Jeremiah Winfrey and the Circuit Rider Mystery
An old man opposes a preacher visitor and shuns a circuit rider. A supernatural barn visitation tests his faith and leads to conversion confusion, confession, and a family wager that backfires into a revival tale. The piece blends sermons, rural humor, and tall tales from a frayed frontier world.

Wisden for Boy promises virtue and perseverance in youth
A fragmentary Wisden style guide urges integrity, patience, promptness, and risk against discouragement. It includes a talking point on guarding passions and sacrificing money over principle, followed by a local tale about Willis Brown recounting large family sizes and a reflective passage praising gratitude. The piece ends with a vivid scene of a shivering boy at a bathing place as friends mock him.
