Odd Items and Anecdotes From Nineteenth Century Gazette
A compilation of curious notes: a Michigan pauper relative, 1883 Spain births and deaths totals, counterfeit currency in the Hudson Valley, a London dentist’s lamp for mouths, cholera hygiene rules, a Burlington girl’s flower sales and family desertion, a Frederick fish that never grew, and Crocker’s drowning plot. Tales of monuments, a Kansas shoemaker’s misdirection, Washington’s tree memorial, and a Virginia asylum remark. Oddball incidents include a Dover ice card, Ranch Gulch saloon notice, Kansas liquor-law evasion, condensed beverages, solid wine cakes, fashion shifts in women’s shoes, and evolving gender roles in Switzerland and France. Writing-paper consumption by nationality concludes with fabrications about national traits. A warning about a bladderwort fish-eating plant in carp ponds ends the column.
