Fragmented 19th century newspaper ad text
A damaged OCR fragment from The Chronicle Telegram shows scattered references to Easter, office locations, and subscription prices. The legible bits include a 4.00 per year rate and a 95.00 elsewhere but the text is garbled with stray letters, making the notice largely unreadable and not clearly delineating a single coherent event or notice. The snippet also mentions advertising and General Motors Building in New York.
