Lost Nannie and the Black Hollow Murder Tale
A widower recalls his daughter Nannie as she vanishes after a wary romance with John Stevens. He later uncovers evidence of murder in Black Hollow, ties Stevens to the crime, and ends by burning the mill before fleeing after the pursuit of justice. The reminiscence blends loss, vengeance, and a haunting family tragedy.

Sitting Bull Relations with Government Commission
Col. Corbin, returning from talks with Sitting Bull, reports the chief was formal yet companionable and granted several interviews. Sitting Bull described the Custer massacre with similar details to common understanding and noted Reno’s retreat could have demoralized his forces. The Persian army is said to be officered by foreigners with a French engineer, a Dane in artillery, and two Italians with a French infantry commander.
