Merom News Roundup Conflicts and Local Happenings
Farmers boast the harvest as the best since 1879 and Meromites plan an excursion to Chicago. Excitement over Yam Yams in Sullivan, fishing tales, a tax collector incident, a romance with Rose Elizabeth Cleveland, land purchases by Ex President Mudge, and horse shoes dominate local business. Concerns arise over street teens and Baptist church events. A planned basket meeting by colored residents draws opposition from locals who view it as a free show.
