Executor of a Strange Will and a Tooth of Doom

In a Devonshire cottage tale, a retired officer Ellis asks his old friend to be executor of a will tied to a cursed tooth. A night specter extracts a molar, then Ellis dies mysteriously. The narrator learns the tooth’s fate is linked to a somnambulist dentist and a Captain Ellis of H regiment.

Abstract of the General Laws of 1858 and state notes

A summary of the recent Wisconsin general laws passed last year. Key provisions include circuits appointing two county commissioners, sale or mortgage powers for religious properties, access to state history texts for schools, tax collection extensions, railroad safety rules, certified copies evidence in court, highway guide boards, county treasurer allowances, and various reforms in prisons, probate, and practice. The report notes near 200 pages, 600 copies printed for distribution, and a new code of procedure taking effect March 1. Local notices, rail traffic, and educational funding measures are also listed, with additional items on railroad penalties and anti fraud measures. The piece closes with brief, miscellaneous commentary on newspapers, advertising, and a satiric social note on advertising in sermons.
