Fragmented Tales From A Busy News Page
A jumble of anecdotes from multiple towns and voices describes quirky incidents. A New York girl’s case links captors to menial work. a New London saloonkeeper’s finder returns a near four hundred dollar pocketbook with a quip on honesty. villagers ponder warlike messengers and two miles apart duties. A sick boy spurs doctor talk and a federal bulletin joke, while a Georgetown child sustains a liver injury treated by Dr. Rogers with repair and stitching.
