Old Settlers Day Reflections and Local Notes
A fragmentary letter from Mrs J G Faris recalls Lacon Park Old Settlers Day memories with names like Henry Republican and Nebraska City figures. The piece mentions visits to Tecumseh and Nebraska City, family milestones, and long ties to Henry and adjacent areas. A separate column notes Illinois World’s Fair preparations, state exhibits, and a peculiar Peoria court case involving the Chicago to Alton railway over corn delivery delays and carrier liability.
