Crowded cricket practice and fires at Black River
In Elyria the cricket team faces a tight schedule with a return match against Cleveland in about a week, urging players to train. A fire at Endisan's foundry on Black River destroyed the building, with losses around seven thousand dollars, fully insured. County expenditures are listed, including wages, bridge funds, and farm supplies. Also noted are the Live Home Journal’s renewed status and editorial lineup, and monthly marriage licenses: eighteen in June, nineteen in July. A restaurant ad and miscellaneous notices close the column.
