Unpopular ism and oddities in a clipping page
A collage of quips and oddities notes in a clipping: a New York detective driven insane on rank demotion, Mississippi judges allowing bail before conviction, a nine year old girl in Blueetown who recalls all she hears, a chiropodist boasting of removing coins from drowned heads of Europe, and a judge urging jurors to quit peanuts. Also reports of strange accidents, payments for wool, a fatal applexy, infant body in a cistern, old soldiers’ deaths, and other scattered local notes.

Fragments of social jests and anecdotes from a bygone era
A mosaic of jokes and vignettes spans slang, regional voices, and odd happenings. Pieces include a Brigham Young will joke, corset bathing myths, a Virginia killer rumor, a Brattleboro shoe mix up, a goose in church, and a playful barter over fowls and math. Distinct persons and places surface in rapid-fire snippets.
