A Pleasant Evening and Community Notes in 1898
A 1898 array of items from Fulton and nearby areas recounts a pleasant Oct evening with Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Rowley hosting an oyster supper and a thanks for labor during a snow delay. The column lists a Sunday School program, a naval drama at Grand Opera House, a church dedication in Dudley township, and county board notices. It also includes election returns plans, sales at Spooner and Nordaker, a quip about a magistrate and a life-leaning reflection on dividends from living.
