Pack of Letters Mystery Nets $25 000 Reward Tale
A Waterloo youth loses a bag of letters tied to cashier’s check rumors, after a New Brunswick bank offered $25,000 for them.

The story also reports local society notices and outings in Waterloo, Iowa, including visits, auto trips, and market prices for catfish and popcorn.
