A mashup of small town notices from South Bend and nearby places recounts visits by relatives and friends across Apollo, Blair County, Indiana, and West Lebanon. It includes a long twin coincidence in Devonshire England about two miller brothers born in 1851 who married the same day, raised a large family, and never missed Sunday School. The column closes with a brief local quip about hiring a capable chauffeur and a joke about a repairman and tire dealer.
