Fragmentary OCR notes indicate a planned auction event by Central DMRC scheduled for November 14, 1888. Readable fragments mention dates and the agency but lack full details of items, location, or participants.
A garbled OCR fragment appears to reference a peewee item from a 1960s period, with partial digits and names unclear. No coherent event, team, or date can be established from the readable bits.
A garbled OCR piece presents fables and fragments about a peasant and robins over cherries, a grasshopper and a bug, a lawyer warning, and a host at a social event. It weaves disjoint anecdotes, phrases, and partial sentences without clear narrative.
The piece discusses unusual light phenomena near sunset observed by travelers in Egypt and the Red Sea, plus a diabetes case in a child tied to sugar intake. It notes welding advances with electricity, global science societies, and a Chicago nitroglycerine resuscitation case with dramatic recovery details.
The Denver News recounts Charles Coulter a famed Western cowboy killed after being shot fourteen times by Cornado citizens last Sunday. Described as six feet one inch tall, 200 pounds, Coulter rode cattle from infancy and helped drive the first big Santa Fe trail herd in 1857. Known for liquor fueled violence he was involved in many clashes including a Dodge City saloon row where two men were killed or wounded. He spent time with the James Younger gang and later rode through Montana and Missouri country, earning a fearsome reputation as a desperado when intoxicated.
Andrew Ehman, an escaped Lancaster jail inmate known as Smith in Delaware, built a co operative works and earned local trust as foreman and church treasurer. Citizens, judges, and clergy petition the State Board of Pardons for an unconditional pardon, citing his reform and exemplary conduct since escaping.
A garbled OCR style piece from 1880 mentions R T Leonard and traveling agents, with scattered phrases about inflamatory feamationa and St Jacob’s phos, a teacher attempting to explain a word to a small class, and random notes on payments and bargaining in New York.
Fragmentary text shows a 19th or early 20th century style mix of dialogue, medical claims, and an advertisement for Kilmer’s Indian Root. It references Hod and Scftmian in a parlor scene with ornamental items, and promotes cures for coughs and bilious symptoms with dubious medical tone.
