Memory and mused reflections weave through a storm of thought
A lengthy prose piece surveys memory as a sanctuary and engine of imagination, pairing poetic passages on recollection with extended quotes from Wordsworth. It contrasts memory’s consoling power with the present, then shifts to two brief anecdotes. The first concerns a Chinese man recalling past joys and the second a courtly parson seeking royal favor.

Political intrigue and a fatal bull attack in a mixed era
The piece discusses southern Democrats and their stance on Reconstruction era alignments with Western factions, arguing over whether Tilden and Hendricks would be inaugurated. It also reports the killing of Luther Peabody by an Alderney bull in Wisconsin, followed by miscellaneous scientific and literary notes from Chicago and Milwaukee, including Elisha Gray’s telephone lecture and anecdotes about Home Sweet Home origins.

Wake Me Up When Kirby Dies Origin Story

Kirby starred in Mike Martin as Thunderbolt, dying on stage with a red sponge wound, creating a lasting sensational effect. Boys slept through parts and begged to be awakened when Kirby died.
