Diphtheria Epidemic and Local Tragedies Hit Indiana Towns
A chaotic list of local incidents fills Indiana papers: a man died in boiling water after a knife wound, an undertaker John Lawson of Dublin is dead, and Mrs. Melinda O. Lightfoot, 84, died in Fort Wayne. Diphtheria ravages orphanages in Columbus, and a public library proposal surfaces in Greenfield. The state also reports barn fires near North Vernon, burnouts at Richmond and Joppa’s post office closure. The Evansville Standard shifts to a cooperative, and the Y. P. S. C. E. holds a district convention at Hagerstown.
