Poison Near-Fatality and Van Buren County Court House Fire
In Washington Iowa Mrs Ephraim Kelley of Keota accidentally ingested poison but survived due to overdose. Van Buren county buildings narrowly escaped fire when a sawdust heap ignited in the clerk office area. The old court house and jail were spared by luck while inquiries note historical details and neglected archives stored beneath stairs and in old rooms. The structure, built 1840s, linked to early Iowa government, remains a venerable yet underfunded temple of justice with preserved but inaccessible records.
