A Bosworth Scheme to Bind Towners Across Denominations
Miss Betsey Bailey and Miss Sarah Jenkins rally sixteen elder Congregational and Baptist women to purchase rival shops and mix worship groups in Bosworth. Rosie Anderson joins their plan by crossing sects to host a mass social that unites Baptists, Congregationalists, and Methodists, with her singing drawing the town together and a young romance unfolding as the village moves toward harmony.

Millers plan saves parish salary and spirit
A poor miller privately funds a year's minister salary, selling grain harvested from church members’ grain to cover costs. The pastor is kept, and the flock learns they are not poorer for paying as a community. The anecdote ends with a call for “a miller in every church.” Dr Swayne’s Ointment and Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry are recommended for skin eruptions and coughs.
