A compact fragment notes that no man knows all things yet prizes owning up to opinion. It muses on conflict as daily life, money and mobility, and cautions against marrying a girl named Dinah. A northern sportsman names a horse Willis, described as hard to catch.
A diverse set of notes covers beliefs on vengeance in China, Japan’s living conditions, a 31 acre farm sale near Maclean for £1250, and West Australian mines paying substantial dividends. Other items include a biting take on tight lacing, WWII style battle averages, a name change for Grenfell Venetre to Onsenver, a Wellington onion sale, Danyez rabbit disease research, a Munich serial killer confession, a Japanese ship launching ritual, language and religion counts, and life expectancy around 66 years.
A collage of humorous exchanges and gossipy quips from a country town. A postmistress teases a returning suitor, while a beggar and a polite lady spar over charity. Jests cover marriage longevity, hair loss cures, bribed officials, and a comical burglary report.
