Bodwell Family Defends Cabin from Indian Attack
In early Maine on the Kennebec frontier the Bodwells, James and wife with children Hannah 15 and siblings aged 10 and 6, prepare a powder mine and muskets after a chief demands entry. Hannah suggests detonating a ground mine as the Indians crowd the door, the explosion and gunfire killing several assailants while the family preserves peace with remaining tribes.

Gossip and reminiscences spill from an old city page
Readers are treated to a rambling column of social anecdotes and notes. The piece recalls a former saloon keeper, patrons seeking Burns quotations, a well preserved Rev. Dr. Backus, and a Quaker depot gateman explaining train safety. It also visits Field, Forest and Stream items with live trout tricks, a domesticated quail, a huge catamount kill, and a priceless antler specimen.
