Piute Longevity and Old-World Justice Told by Nevada Chronicler
The Virginia Chronicle cites Natches the Nestor of the Piute to claim low natural death rates in Paiute Nevada, with most elders moved to Pyramid and Walker Lake reservations. Anecdotes recount Fremont and Carson, and a tale of Judge Harris chasing a rival who sent a rubber pheasant, ending in a long joke about crow.

A fragment notes Brooklynites’ habit of glancing at the former city hall clock, destroyed in a fire, reflecting deep memory of the old cupola. It also advertises Hood’s Sarsaparilla as a nerve tonic, Mrs. Winslow’s soothing syrup for teething, and local business notices for Perry & Cameron and Laird, Shoeber & Co. plus a Winnemucca hotel sale by Thomas Suone, 28th.
