Mercurial swords and a troublesome party tale emerge
A Clay Center resident’s humorous declined invitation note turns into a social snafu when misdirected letters swap between hostess and wife. The column then recalls mercuriale swords once used by Italian, French, and Spanish makers in the 16th and 17th centuries, a fanciful heavier blade filled with quicksilver to boost impact, though impractical. It closes with a St Louis man ignoring jury service due to his marriage to a St Louis woman.
