Snake skin display stirs Cameron County tales and pride
In Dreher, a five foot ten inch rattlesnake skin from Cameron County draws crowds to Whitaker's store, revives old killing stories, and spurs locals to boast of past hunts. Tom Engood, Wayne, reportedly found the creature after it struck at him, and the skin’s exhibition rekindles debates over truth and frontier bravado. Whittaker offers $19 cash plus a store credit for a sworn affidavit of genuine Tawhid skin.

Outshone by a Negro at Saratoga in Four-Horse Parade
Yesterday at Saratoga a public confrontation unfolded between Mme. James, ex-wife of Aaron Burr, and Black Tom Campbell as both parties rode in identical carriages with four horses. The spectacle drew dense crowds, cheers, and accusations of eager recruitment of funds for the show. Mme. James rode again with a pistol, while Tom Campbell paraded with postilions and shining ivory. The incident has sparked inquiries into who financed the horses and postilions, with further revelations anticipated.

Buffalo Gnats Kill Hogs in West Tennessee
In West Tennessee this month many hogs are dying after buffalo gnats peak, with losses larger where hogs were not treated or protected. Observers note horses and cows suffer if not greased, and hogs later fall ill a month or two after gnats fade. A Lauderdale county hog head found many gnats, mirroring the trend.
