Fragmentary 1885 notes span arts, rail, crime and politics
An assortment of clipped items mentions the 1885 passing volume of 15,000,000 gallons, a post office art school at Eden Park, a dying frog incident, Grant monument fundraising in Buffalo, roller skating critiques, birds imitating nests, Yale pedes walks, a Pennsylvania Railroad library and reading rooms project, and scattered political chatter across the nation with references to courts, prohibitions, and local civic events. The text threads through miscellaneous reports, speculative notes, and brief notices.
