Harvests, mysteries and marvels across the Midwest and West
A mosaic of notes from Hancock County Illinois to Newberry Mine in Schuyler County and Clinton Iowa. Reports sketch cholera threats, sudden weighins, gold finds, river ice, vanished postmasters, church dedications, and odd local tales. Distinctive names include Nauvoo farmers and Danville fair officials, with casual glimpses of crime, marriages, and curiosities.
