Tramp Banker Seeks Aid at Titusville Bank
A ragged man, claiming to be a Lama delegate to the Bankers' Convention in Saratoga, tries to borrow money at a Titusville bank. The cashier refuses, noting the vault is closed and offering no cash, while the visitor boasts of papers on the Bank of England and mockingly accuses the bank of hypocrisy.

Farmer's Offset Ends With Bible Dispute Over $32
A farm hired man sued for $32 balance in Justice Alley, but the farmer explained an offset rooted in Bible quarrels that delayed payment. He cited disputes over Daniel, the lion, Jonah, and Noah, ending with a claim to sue for $1,000 if the man proved worth anything. Court reserved decision for 24 hours.
