Henpecked stories echo through old household journal
A readable fragment from a 19th or early 20th century issue blends humor about henpecked husbands with references to famous figures and a formal legal notice. It mentions Socrates, Napoleon, and George Washington as examples, then shifts to a petition before the Houston County Road District about forming school district No. 70 near Jobe’s son Bill. The notice notes the boundary description and a June 8, 1814 date for decision, signed by J.M. Odom, superintendent.
