Village Notes Montage From Michigan Localities
A sprawling collage reports mishaps and life in Michigan towns. A farmer near Vassar shoots himself, a man exults in a horse race from Chelsea to Dexter, and a widow’s cousin’s charity misfires amid postal scandals. A Grand Haven paper laments lumber shortages while a Marine City incident ends in tragedy. The column blends social quips, court actions, and peculiar anecdotes from Kalamazoo to Muskegon.
