A Weird Gathered Picnic Plan In Magnolia Township
A lengthy, slightly garbled report describes a Peoria party led by figures including Police Magistrate Fox and Henry, planning a hidden picnic in Magnolia township with a dummy driver guiding routes by whip signals. The scheme involved calling many locals by telephone and converging for supper before dispersing across stubble fields and a remote road to avoid detection.
