Paroled Juvenile Rebelhood and Local Meat Market Opening
A juvenile court in Iowa placed Herman DeVorsky a 14 year old on parole under probation officer Ki Starr after a hearing with Judge Platt. The boy admitted disobedience to his mother and skipping school though he is well educated in English. The mother did not attend and Graham Greenberg, the uncle, was the complainant. The court warned that further misconduct could bring harsher penalties. Separately, Baker & Co. opened a meat market at 1620 Mulberry Street with sausage making in a newly equipped basement and plans to sell confections, attracting tasteful patrons. The piece notes the 1812 war centennial and Robert Lucas’s early role in Iowa history, with references to his journal and a biography.
