Prayer and childhood memory stir readers in Meigs County
A long reflective piece argues the timeless value of a mother taught prayer “Now I lay me down to sleep.” It links childhood piety to moral formation, warns of distractions from virtue, and invokes a broader plea for family and religious influence amid political upheaval and literary praise.

Democratic Party Faces Douglas Crisis and Squatter Sovereignty
From the New York Day Book letter dated Dec 1868 in Washington, the Democratic caucus ousts Senator Douglas as Chairman of the Committee on Territories after a 17 to 7 vote, signaling a rift over squatter sovereignty. The letter predicts Douglas’s fate within the party, condemns Douglas’ stance, and notes Green of Missouri replacing him. It also mentions charitable bequests by Rev. David Young and remarks on counterfeit currency, the Wanderer slave trade, and other late-19th century notes.
