Patchwork breeches and debts stir early 20th century chatter
A jumble of notices and curiosities recounts an Indy scene where a man jokes about patched breeches and a wife’s pending funds, a Lewiston tale of an old tinsmith who tosses Paradise Lost into the river, and a scientist’s rise from Bristol clerk to award winner. Additional items mention a sword once owned by Edward Gibbon, local lodging rates, island jewelry, dental services, oil paintings for sale, and Hood’s Sarsaparilla touted for health.
