Humorous Tales and Oddities From a Distant Train Car
A jumbled slice of period column humor and local color. Tales of mistaken identity in a car scene with Harper Jones and a spliced romance, a cotton skirt fashion note, a preacher salary anecdote, a New York store mishap, and a coal oil tale in Allegheny County with a village blacksmith and his daughter.
