Swindler Winter Dupes Odd Fellows in Galena
A man named F. Winter from Bryan Ohio posed as an Odd Fellows member to solicit help, claiming a lost wallet with $600 after a trip from Dunleith to Iowa. He was welcomed then left during the night after telegraphs warned of his bad character. Bryan officials expelled him last winter. Look out.

Gerritt Smith Letter on Bondsmen and Confederate reparations
Gerritt Smith releases a letter explaining his bond signings for Mr. Jett Davis’s bondsman role. He argues a moral obligation to sign and questions treason charges, saying the North bore war responsibility too and southern suffering warrants forbearance. He even proposes a $50 billion loan to the South to repair losses. The piece notes Smith’s views may lack broad northern support. It also mentions a legend about the Great Eastern wreck and spirits of two victims haunting the space between outer and inner frames.
