Memories of a Remsen Town from a Marcus Exile 1893

A reminiscence from a former Remsen resident recalling arrival in 1893, life at the Hoffman House, friendships with Otto Luehrs and other locals, the Remsen band and a Bryan campaign episode. They recount early publishing work on Die Remsen Bell and Die Remsen Glocke, local German community events, schoolyard sports, and neighborhood characters. The piece preserves local color, people, places, and 1890s civic life.

Ten Tall Hats and Remsen Memories of 1880s Bet

Remsen reminiscences recall the famous ten dollar hat bet tied to Cleveland’s 1880 presidential chances. John Arnsdorf of Sioux City wagered a silk hat if Cleveland won not, while ten Remsen and LeMars youths collected hats after a Cleveland victory. The tale threads through local figures and a later bank-related scandal, then shifts to community memories, the Cloverleaf Club, and a 50th anniversary homecoming note by J M Klauer.
