Odds and Ends Scenes in a Detroit Snowdrift
A collage of humorous vignettes from Detroit society and streets. Comic episodes describe a comically misfired accident, a boy Ezra hoping to fix a lummax joke, a West Hill family moment, a bookseller’s remark on Fourth Street, an awkward greeting on Madison Avenue, and crowds wading through mud on Grand River Avenue as spring teases its arrival.

The fragment ends with news of a soap mine venture in California.
