Fragmentary lines describe a figure with a blue dress and a long gold wand. Questions linger about a green sale and the queen’s use of specific objects. The text reads like a poetic riddle or stage direction.
A narrative recounting Peter Cooper's claim to building America's first locomotive and driving a train in Baltimore in 1830, predating Stephenson's Rocket by over a year. It details Cooper's methods, the early Baltimore & Ohio railroad, the test runs, and later reflections on the rotary engine idea and the public race with horses.
A damaged fragment describes a liar who must deal with, discusses travel across the Atlantic and Europe, mentions a friend who knew about trips, and references a swarm of insects encountered on the 25th of the month. The text appears as a garbled diary-like record with uncertain details.
Fragmentary notice reports real estate valuations for the city and county with figures 424,895 for 1881 and 271,186 for 1882. A Northwes line mentions foot notes and shares related to the listings, but the text is garbled.
The text prescribes a beverage made from water with suet, mixed with four quarters of oat meal and two to three quarts of water boiled, then sweetened with brown sugar. One and a half ounces of brown sugar is added after boiling, with lemon peel optional for enhanced flavor and vitality. Serve cold in summer or hot in winter to quell thirst.
