Anecdote of the War Around Hayes Help to a Young Soldier
An old veteran recalls enlisting in the Twenty third Ohio Volunteers during the Civil War. Major Rutherford B Hayes helps a fatigued recruit by riding him, provisioning him, and comforting the unit at camp near Tompkins Farm as rebels had fired earlier. The memory ends with continued support for Hayes among Western soldiers.

The Last Democratic Lie on Gov. nyes
A historical letter claim surrounds Gov Tayes and a secret political society arguing suffrage and office rights should be limited to native-born individuals. Hayes denied such letter and any secret society membership, branding the charges as fabrication. The Ohio State Journal quotes strongly against the allegations as untrue. The passage also notes fern collection growth at Kew Gardens and Britain’s cultivated fern species totals.
