A long, lively revival tale from a Georgia church features Old Club Ax Davis, a backwoods preacher who contrasts Baptists Methodists and Presbyterians with humor. He derisively notes Presbyterian discipline and catechism, then recalls family prayers and a near-fatal wagon accident that spurred a personal prayer.
An extended provincial essay extols marriage as divine, a bulwark of society, and the queenly influence of woman in shaping national destiny. It contrasts male power with female virtue, then shifts to a New York exhibition of Signor Bertolotto’s fleas, describing tricks, the all-room scene, and a humorous anecdote. A Montreal child’s remarkable surgical reconstruction is recounted, followed by a public school anecdote about a fight with a minister and a brash teamster.
A chaotic account describes a student named Pittmrams and others in a log school where a plastered wall breaks and a boy named Vittmin's boy is involved. A teacher named Simes directs attention to the exterior, and an attempted rescue or punishment escalates with a damaged structure and a water-filled tank scene nearby.
