Mystery and politics fill the Lawrence journal pages

A dusty 1888 note appears with scattered items from Kansas and national affairs. It mentions General F. Ex Marshall's New York ice mishap, resignations of officials like E. Averey, and Ed Austin, plus rapid railroad growth, tariff debates, and public notices about wool and sheep industry in Texas and Kansas politics. It also includes literary notes on Lincoln cabinet history, Shakespeare, and a sensational but corrected warship wood claim.
