A fragment from a Billmyer’s Bargain Store page shows a jumbled customer guide listing various items and prices in an unclear sepia-toned advertisement. Names and products intermingle with misread words, suggesting a bygone storefront catalog and pricing hints.
Auction notice lists Eamon farm at Bakerton and Frank Moler farm with Tuesday October 25 1921 at 10 am. Items include four head of horses including Topsy the mare and gray mare, six year old cattle herd with milk cows, mower, rake, plows, harrow leader, seeders, disks, belting gear, drag, hogs, sow sets, and farm equipment. Local properties to be sold at auction.
Fragmentary report notes Sind, Barnes, and Sather at an Epa gathering with mentions of locklands and paw tines. Details are unclear but identify several individuals and a local group.
Fragmentary OCR yields an auction notice with terms, endorsements, and vague asset mentions. Names such as Manuel Woods appear with an auctioneer tag Tsong Butthart. The text references a sale in Shepherdstown, a note payable at a bank, and a partial list including carpet and mat yard items and a Sunday School event with sandwiches.
Missing clear details but the fragment references a sum of 15000 dollars, a delivery to New York, and a state treasurer involved with land or farm deliveries to the New York bank for a syn. The readable text hints at financial actions or transfers tied to state assets and a bank.
Incomplete OCR text notes preliminary surveys for a state road project and quotes for expenditures. The fragment mentions dates in January and references a three year period and a statement from teasers, but many words are garbled, leaving the exact project, amounts, and officials unclear.
Readable fragments show Governes organ selling vans and tanks to a syndicate linked to Went Vi. A deposit was to be delivered by Governor Morea via the State Treasurer on Thursday. The text is garbled but indicates a sale transaction and related deposits.
A damaged OCR fragment describes bond sales to multiple purchasers and notes terms such as interest payments and due dates. The text lists numerous misread names and places, including Wheeling and Charlatans, with references to state treasurer and brokers and unclear delivery of sections. The overall meaning is garbled but centers on a municipal bond transaction and payment schedule.
Fragmentary text cites a roster including WH Groves and Woodbery with uncertain roles. It references a possible discovery or event tied to a person named Leebwn and a phrase Aner y ae they dcovered a, leaving key details unclear.
A fragmented local text mentions Roy and sister suberland, Mrs 8. 8, and names like Owen, Mrs. Jacob Monsih, and Bakeron. It references travel on a Shenandoah route, cars, trains, and street scenes with fleeting mentions of dates and households in a small town context.
The readable portion lists some names and references to Lagion Noten Alt, Pomme Post No.2, and Aristee activities, but the text is fragmented with missing words. It hints at presenting or featuring members and planning activities, though specifics are unclear.
