Roving Clamors Over Water and Scandals in Wheeling
The Wheeling Register details a cross section of local issues and gossip. It condemns a rash of theft by the Martling family, discusses water supply woes and a proposed intercepting sewer, questions the Water Board’s handling, and critiques sensational typhoid fever dispatches. It also mentions figures like “Skyébox” Minton and Miss Moseby, plus a tale of a character named Mitton and a Pittsburgh-vindicated impostor, all in a brisk, opinionated tone.
