Spy Hunter and Wolf Hall Coup in New York Village
Two British riders pursue a pedlar spy through a New York village and countryside. The chase spans thirty miles with a bribe offer of five hundred pounds, culminating in a dramatic hand to hand struggle where the spy overpowers Captain Dick, is killed by a companion, and John Panton escapes to Washington's lines. Washington honors the fallen and the tale ends noting Panton’s later life with Quakers.

Quotes and anecdotes from a late 19th century column
A collage of moral musings, local witticisms, and short sketches mentions Philadelphia horticulturist Thomas Meehan, a tale of premature interment, jokes about judges and whisky cures, and a long moral reflection on acts of charity. It closes with a Bible gift story where a girl buys a large print Bible for a neighbor, ending with the motto To give to the poor is to lend to the Lord.
