The Wakarusa Sun Sees Weather Fine and News of Olive
The Wakarusa Sun notes no snow and beautiful weather. It reports Locke Station Baltimore and Ohio Depot in running order with a time table to be published next week.

It mentions theft of over-shoes and razor, a new Justice of the Peace appointment for Olive Township, a planned three-church Christmas union tree, and the death of Jacob Sailor aged 68. It ends with a quip from Tax South Bend Union about newspaper prosperity.
