Old December and Christmas musings in Stromsburg and Shelby
A stitched-together Nebraskan page piece blends holiday verses, local notes, and social chatter. It recalls Old December as a seasonal motif, reports on Osceola and Stromsburg merchants, editor swaps with York, local inventions, rail fare anecdotes, youth and family scenes, plus town updates on shipping, grain, water works debates, and community characters.
