A Boston detective arrives to solve the Agatha Webb case in Sutherlandtown. Knapp interviews locals, traces a fresh note and a hidden fortune, and probes whether Philemon Webb or a concealed suspect killed Agatha. The harvest reveals old secrets and new motives behind the murder.
In a confrontation at a store, Knapp presses Sally Loton to name the man who bore resemblance to a suspect. She cites a beard and a similar look to two men, John and James Zabel, but remains reluctant to identify anyone. The scene ends with the detective leaving as the incident continues. TO BE CONTINUED, drunk scene noted.
A Yorkville Enquirer reader laments Christmas drunkenness and rowdy behavior. He urges reverent celebration tied to the Nativity, recalling Bethlehem scenes and the eternal joy of a savior born, to curb revelry and restore meaningful observance.
Washington reports say the Hay-Pauncefote treaty will be ratified as drawn, with no amendments, to clear the way for a Trans Isthmian canal. Debate centers on fortifications, Panama versus Nicaragua routes, and administration support for a strictly neutral, American guided project.
The president will likely urge an amended currency law to place gold standard beyond attack by making all money forms interchangeable. He plans a Philippine civil government under the Spooner bill using the army for order until home rule is achieved. He will push an isthmian canal plan, ratify the Hay Pauncefote treaty, and call for army expansion to about 100000. The message emphasizes China policy and Cuba self-government with continued open door.
