It lists church attendance, lumbering work, mill operations, and social gatherings at The Embroidery Club and community events, reflecting daily life in Bethel and surrounding areas.
A dense, reads-like-obs notebook from Pekin area residents chronicles spelling bees, church events, visits, and farm work across the town. Names such as John Callum, Marie Gill, and W. Short appear with reports of gatherings, sales, barn work, and a pie supper, plus notes on local meetings and a drifting sense of seasonal activity and weather.
A low stool with a broad seat ideal for drying feet and putting on shoes. The DuBhion is covered with a neatly fitted wrap, square top and sides, made of thick white Tukléh tovlity.
A fragmented 19th or early 20th century guide outlines emergency steps for poisoning by various substances including acids salts and alkalis. It mentions induce vomiting with mustard or salt, give water or milk, activate stomach pumping, keep the patient awake, and administer antidotes and stimulants as advised, with broad warnings about household poisons and the need for a physician. The text weaves medical directions with rambling social commentary on women and marriage.
