Tempered notes from Terre Haute and beyond in 1871

A sprawling digest of local items reports Frems and Brunor Ames preaching in Lafayette, a nearly ready New Castle foundry, a Terre Haute presbytery meeting, police raids on bagnets, temperance gathering at Vincennes, and a host of incidents.

The Sentinel wedding tale and walking lessons mix

A long old article blends a moral on trust in men from Old Daisy Sullivan with a walking lesson by Miss Howard gleaned from a queenly bearing. It then shifts to a tax per head comparison and a Kansas City tale of a widow, a feigned husband, and a $100 pursuit, ending with the couple fleeing to Fort Scott.

The New York World notes the third year of Grant’s term shows a monthly debt reduction of 11 011 250 65 dollars, exceeding last year’s average and near double March 1870’s reduction. It cites total debt decrease of 215 765 663 74 dollars since 1869, leaving 2 484 076 643 05 dollars owed, and compares $2 4 per head to other nations, while disputing claims of one hundred dollars per capita.
