Issue for May 14, 1867
Wedding Bells?December 25, 1865Well it appears that some of the women in this town are just marriage hungry. It was overheard in the Teton Room that the Colonel has arrived back home to the fair town of Lago. However, it was also heard that his boots did not even get warm before marriage was mentioned. The lady is relatively new to town and the name was not given. However, she has long black hair and the Colonel put her up in a room at the Grand Hotel.Witnesses of this brassy behavior also note that the woman was seen drinking spirits and laughing a bit too loud. The Colonel was though a gentleman. So are wedding bells soon ringing for the Colonel? Or was the gentleman just playing gentle on the drunken vixen? An Innocent HeartAugust 3, 1865It seems the shy and innocent act is once again aiding the women of Lago in helping them find their future husbands. In this instance, however, it is not so much an act. Ms. Agatha Ramsey has always been quiet, but once she sat down for tea in the Trail's End she was completely aflutter at the entrance of one Duncan MacKenzie.Now while we all are well aware that Mr. MacKenzie is a handsome, hardworking man, Miss Ramsey, who has been formally complimented on her quiet and meek ways, went so far as to pour tea over herself to gain his attentions. And, of course, for the entire time in which she was engaged in the conversation, she stole glances of him, her cheeks practically glowing with a warm, red hue. Of course, as the man left, Miss Ramsey did not try to hide her eyes as she watched him leave, and once he was gone, well, from the look on her face he was certainly not gone from her mind. Is there a wedding in the future for this young couple? Or is Mr. MacKenzie in fact completely unaware to how completely fully Agatha Ramsey has fallen in love with him? Scandalous Behavior!July 3, 1865The abandoned house south of town as been alive with activity as a dark-skinned mulatto and another dark-haired woman, who it has been rumored struck up a swift relationship, have been supervising several able-bodied and sweat-slicked men in the rejuvenation of the place. We wonder if they are paying these men from various farms and ranches (evidently neglecting their real work) with coin or making use of the barter system. And what is the house for? Scandalous activity? Though to see the women in passing, they wear few clothes, the darkie having her skirt tucked into the waistband and her legs bared, for all to see! No corset, no bindings. And the other? She walks around the men as they work, bolding running her fingers down their sweaty chests. If this is to be a bawdy house, it is best that it be outside the confines of our small town. The Town's New TomboyJuly 3, 1865Did you see that Carter woman walking around town? I can hardly tell she's a woman at all! Walking about in jeans and a Union Army coat, and those guns! That woman carrys more weapons than any MAN has a right too much less a lady. I tell you know good will come from letting this Tomboy strut about town armed like she's going to war.There was obviously some grievous error at the land office to have sold this woman the plot she's built that shop on. Whoever heard of a woman gunsmith? It's absolutely outrageous! |
