Wit and humor and a scattered modern dialogue
A satirical column mixes quips on courtship and social foibles with jokes about newspapers editors printers and pay. It recounts anecdotes from conversations with a temperance meeting in Springfield to a poetess and a farmer, ending with notices of debt and unpaid printing and the death of Wilton T Haskill at Hopkinsville Lunatic Asylum in Kentucky.
