The Cuthbert Chronicle reports a July 1870 bulletin of diverse items. It notes abolition of a state agricultural bill, rail tariff debates, and calls for railroad regulation, plus local deaths, fairs, fires, and a Georgia flood of varied topics from locusts to cholera. The piece includes remarks by Gen. Toombs, a sermon by Lissie Logan, and several community notices from Baker and Macon counties.
A grim report details multiple deaths across July with 10 to 6 fatalities on various dates. It notes fear of the disease in Memphis remains high, despite authorities’ efforts to quarantine and cleanse the city. Outside areas, officials aim to prevent wider spread, hoping quarantine and sanitation keep outbreaks contained compared with 1878.
A fragmentary agricultural piece discusses cottonseed feeding for hogs, noting some fear of harm. It suggests small, white cottonseed for hogs, warns against dangerous practices, and shares anecdotal cautions from farmers about hog losses and safety around feed.
The article discusses skin health and its disease impact, noting proverbs on perspiration and exposure. It reports the request for a new trial in Hill's murder case in Atlanta, Judge Hillyer denying it at nine o'clock Friday, with life in prison and an appeal planned to the Supreme Court.
