Wild Chronicle of Indiana Towns and Trials in Spring News
A jumbled Indiana broadside reports torn-up notes on tricks by footpads near Goshex and wild docks, race to develop mines near Fea, protests in Crawfordsville and Richmond, a burned barn near Anderson, a slew of legal cases, fatalities from nitroglycerine testing, and pensions listed for multiple counties, with references to theaters, streetcars, and public notices across Adams, Greene, Hendricks, and surrounding counties.
