A quarter century old inscription near Niagara Gorge marks a fatal attempt to swim to Canada. It reads Tom Cardinal drowned trying to swim river July 1939. The memorial warns visitors about the dangerous Whirlpool Rapids area. In New York, notices describe foreclosures and property sales in Rensselaer and Albany counties.
A man named Jaqus purchases a turn of the century railroad station built in 1882 for home use. The 54 by 16 foot structure features gabled ends and freight doorways. He and his wife expect to finish renovations in two to three years and will live in the building. The article also mentions a disjointed note about the U.S. Army’s disbandment in 1784 and a later 700 man force, but details are unclear.
