A fragment attributed to Artemus Ward recounts a chaotic scene from a past East Sheboygan appearance. The narrator describes a confrontation with a blows to the eye, a hasty retreat, and a comical motherly quip about her son’s mishap, all in a rambling, humoristic travelogue style.
A reader writes a playful critique of elders dispensing advice to boys while recalling Richmond landmarks. The piece recounts President Hill and Breckenbrough House gifts to Jefferson Davis, plus Lee’s residence, and notes their refusals to accept gifts. An Egypt sketch by Miss Whately adds a humorous moral about vanity and aging.
