Printing Press Makers in 1605 New York Tale
In 1605 a vivid Jersey City scene recalls Robert Hoe and a sick worker seeking help from neighbors as the fever tightens its grip. The narrator notes Hoe’s rise and dresses, then shifts to Charleston anecdotes of enslaved Africans aboard ships and a comic Queen’s wardrobe misadventure, ending with a humorous beach landing and boat scramble.

Fortune telling exposed as imposture and a murder tale
The Philadelphia Enquirer notes widespread fortune telling deception in big cities, cites a magician Madama Morrow hoax and a mirror trick. It warns of the harm to gullible people, and recounts a brutal Coles County murder linked to gambling and a man named McCoy, found dead in a well after a dispute with Shouth.

Prose Portuy and Odd Proverbs in Raucous Verse
A fragmentary page mixes moralizing verse with bawdy anecdotes and satirical prose. It parodies domestic rules and gender roles, quotes a harsh husband’s commandments, and follows with ventriloquized tales of lovers, boasting men, and sly wits from American journalism.
