Peters twins and a riverboat poker game tale
Caleb Mix recalls the Peters twins two Ozark poker players aboard the River Belle. The tale recounts their duel with two Chicago men Perkins and Foster, deck tricks, table stakes, and a fatal gunplay on the Mississippi riverboat. Cap Taft orders ashore settlement after the duel, with later recollection of the dead pasty-faced man. A second brief note from the Mallet Mall Gacetts reports Austrian army suicide statistics by Paul Myrdacs.
