Local notes from Odon area reflect church, schooling and commerce
Odon community reports a Monday tribal meeting and numerous visits by residents like Dan Dunhem at Fred Toallo's Grove street property. Widespread references include Danner's store ads, Elias Laughtin and Rob Abraham at Linton, and local schooling with the Madison township institute planned February 17. Protracted religious meetings, sickness in the area, and town trades from carpentry to shoe sales fill the page along with road weariness and local travel to Loogootee and Washington.
