City Life Odd Notes From A Busy Day
A jumble of items from Indianapolis and nearby: Bowen-Merrill fire’s tenth anniversary recalls several firefighters killed. David A Mercer of Terre Haute seeks bankruptcy with debts of 3883.2 and assets of 460. Debates on the South African war favoring England. A seesaw of accidents, indictments, and petty crime spans the city from police court fines to a horse buyer’s recuperation.

The Friendly Sons of St Patrick plan a Denison banquet with toasts. Sheriff notes include a fugitive from Illinois cleared, and Pekin reports of damages from a high.
