County Convention Elects County Committee and Delegates

Large turnout of delegates from townships and wards filled the opera house as the county convention opened. Jon. 8, F. Snyder presided, with W. J. Gregg reading the call and N. J. Frink as secretary. Delegates from Albion, Athens, Battle Creek, Marshall, Pennfield, and other towns were seated after credentials were approved, and the body formed state, congressional, and senatorial conventions. Harmony prevailed, with assurances of Republican strength and unity.

The Coroner's Inquest Into Robbie Alexander’s Drowning

The coroner convened to hear testimony about Robbie E Alexander who was found drowned. Witnesses described river race depths from six inches to two feet and tracked footprints leading toward the river. Several boys and farmhands recounted timing, paths, and sightings around the cornfield, pasture gate, and iron bridge while tracing tracks across fields and toward the swimming spot, with no conclusive crossing evidence.
