A fragmented public notice describes a missing word contest with subscription receipts sharing a prize pool. It references Aztec Colfax, New Mexico, a Santa Fe Route, stage lines, and prices, plus endorsements for Chamberlain's Pain Balm and a fictional romantic exchange.
Fragmented OCR text presents a dialogue with oblique references to profit, teaching, and currency. It hints at a discussion about value, method, and honesty, mentioning cents, dollars, and schooling figures in a cryptic way. The readable phrases suggest a moral or rhetorical exchange rather than a clear event or report.
Prospectors rush to a new gold mining camp near Cochiti as Spring opens. The placer and quartz mines are 26 miles from Cerrillos, 25 miles from Santa Fe, and 20 miles from Wallace. Stage fares from Cerrillos 3.50, Santa Fe 3.00, Wallace 2.00 with discounts for large parties.
Notice for publication lists a wild jumble of legal notices from Lincoln County New Mexico. It includes a settler Kemp ton filing for final proof on homestead 113 and witnesses, a suit by attachment against Levi S Davis with default judgment risk, and multiple district court notices about divorces, bankruptcies, and property attachments. The document blends probate, civil actions, and chancery matters with dates and party names like George Bens, Will Lane, and J.B. Waveren, reflecting routine 19th century county court notices.
A Buffalo telegraph story recounts a tall operator recalling how women at a Western Union window argued over cost saving by using bad grammar and a shortened phrase. They debated wording for Charles suicided versus died by own action, finally choosing the cheaper syntax.
