Quarries and a somber parade in New York streets
In a dense New York Mail and Express account, a vivid scene unfolds of a massive procession across Thirty Broad Street, a solemn hearse, empty chairs at home, and families overwhelmed with grief. The piece shifts to lighter technology news about artificial legs, their rise after the Civil War, costs, and fitting practices for children and the elderly. It closes with brief anecdotes on a swindle exposure in London and a tragic electrocution on the Erie Canal towpath, plus a testimonial praising Chamberlain's Cough Remedy from Warrington, England.
