River Spirit Brings Comfort to ailing Brother in Mile End

In Mile End a decaying ten-room house shelters seven families. A frail boy with consumption lies on a straw pallet while his sister tends him and endures their drunken father. At night she seeks the river's aid, dreaming of a valley and spirits who promise health for her brother. The boy later dies peacefully as dawn reveals the sister left weeping and the river’s blessing fulfilled only for him.

The letter describes Holly Springs as a city of the dead with empty houses, high weeds, and deserted streets.

Sherman Report Highlights Indian Policy and Army Strength

Gen Sherman submits annual report to Secretary McCrary detailing army strength with eight to ten cavalry regiments and eighteen to twenty five infantry regiments, and urges decisive food support for tribes like the Sioux and Cheyennes. He warns specialization of policy, warns of hunger driving wars, and calls for flexible authority to supply food. He notes smaller Pacific coast bands caused large damage, salmon regulation risks, and a need for decisive frontiers policy. He references Indian treaties and reservations, and discusses post and academy reforms and cadet admissions.

Worldless Solitude Beyond the Market’s Clamor

Distant Bits of Wit and Weather in Early Papers

A collage of snippets from 19th century papers with jokes about delusions of grandeur, traps for the unwary, winds of change, and rural life.
