Grave of Chiat Snachwine Recalls Potawatomi Chief
A visit to the Snachwine grave near the Bureau Valley railroad recalls Chief Spachwine of the Potawatomi. The mound, now a memory with timber markers and a flag, sits above a valley once filled with wigwams, as local settlers and historians recount his opposition to war and his impact on the era.

Henry council hears temperance petition from 802 ladies
On May 14 the Henry city council, after adjournment of the old board, received a petition signed by 802 local women asking that no license be granted to sell intoxicating liquors. Rev. H. McVay presented the petition and urged prohibition, arguing liquor traffic brings crime and hardship to families.
