The 1885 act takes effect December 1 and is certified by the North Carolina Secretary of State.

The Blind Man of Waterloo Bridge and His Parables
A London bridge reader named George Glayzier, blind since youth, has read Bible parables at Waterloo Bridge since 1856. He prefers the parable of the ruined fig tree, believes parables explain life, and recalls a run in with William Ox, the so called Blind Man of Waterloo Bridge, illustrating urban rumor and the law.
