Railroad Across Coon River Connects Westward
The railroad is completed across Coon river three miles west of this place and passenger cars may begin running soon. Jefferson is bustling with business as J C Harker erects a new business house on the square and more buildings rise on the same street. A Congregational meeting, a shower, crop prospects, land ads, and revenue figures concerning May to July 1866 fill the notices in this issue.

Harvest praise and odd local tale from Buckeye
The writer lauds a bountiful wheat and corn crop in the county noting unusually rich oats and a healthy harvest. A freak subsidence damaged a cellar wall near the city, likely lightning, then a short travel note recalls a Mt Dodge prairie trip and stops at Paterick's well for Ada n Ale. Weather shows a hot day with high heat and cooling shade noted.
