Paris Letter Writer and Keelys Motor Swindle Tale
A cluttered reminiscence recalls a hop harvest inn near St Nicolas with Vosges travelers, a violin, a painter, and rustic hospitality. The piece shifts to a Keely motor hoax, describing a sealed air engine and its deceptive exterior, then debunks the claim as a fabrication while noting local notices and cures for consumption and other ailments.

Describes how a medium uses a stuffed hand robe attached by a string to simulate a spirit hand during seance.
