Local notes tease readers with missing items and Niagara Falls trip
A Warren county newspaper column from July 16 1874 laments lack of news items for the week and jokes about filling space. It mentions an upcoming Niagara Falls excursion on an afternoon train with prices for all ages, and alludes to local option and political convention chatter. The piece also notes events by the Youngsville and Warren groups, a cantata planned by the Warren Musical Association, and brief items on local shops and a hen with a large brood.
