A Turbulent 19th Century Night in LeClaire
A long, readable fragment details a night scene with a police shooting in LeClaire, a coroner in Milan, and a justifiable homicide verdict. It references Barney Cleveland, Officer S. H. Leever, and local residents, with commentary on marriage laws and regional politics. The piece also touches on public notices, canal plans, and social theater in a broad late 19th century context.
