The Dow twins and the strange tale of Jehiel
In a long rural tale from Saturday Cove, twin brothers Jacob and Jehiel Dow grow up with doctor Gookin’s influence shaping their lives. After Jacob’s death, Jehiel’s pious facade devolves into violent crime and drunken misadventure, culminating in his arrest while Miss Giles endures heartbreak. The doctor’s posthumous guilt theory haunts locals as others debate culpability and possession.

European War. U S Grain Exports Rise Amid Crisis
A wartime analysis notes that even limited Anglo-American commerce faces disruption as Europe fights. U S grain shipments to England and the Continent amount to about 45 million bushels yearly, with war partners likely to buy heavily. A 460 system of cheap transit supports continued export to the Atlantic, boosting American agriculture, rail traffic, and related industry. Fresh beef exports are anticipated as Turkish Russian conflict expands, with German steamers to add refrigeration for meat shipments, signaling a key shift in international trade.
