Fort Wayne Newsbriefs and Society Notes
Local residents such as R. H. Munshower of Muncie and Mrs. E. Cass of Huntington appear in city society listings. The Rainbow club ran an excursion to Swift’s park and church groups picnicked at the same site. Several marriages are noted including Daniel Ninde to Rose Demmon in Ann Arbor and Ottilie Tresselt to Dr Adolph Speckhard in Frankmouth. A variety of civic events, lodge activities, and a 4th of July one fare announcement on the Nickel Plate line are listed with multiple names and places.
