Peculiar Invitations and Mercury Swords Noted

A Clay Center citizen sent a witty decline to a hostess claiming family dress woes as the reason, while his wife’s note to return home caused a mix up. Also described are mercurial swords from the 16th century, heavy blades with quicksilver-filled backs to add weight. The first shell in warfare appeared in 1480 in Gujarat.
