The Davis City Advance, Davis City, Iowa
Thursday, July 18, 1895

A party of Lamoni people are encamped in the valley of Mud on Grand River this week. L.J. BARR and wife, W.P. CURWEN and wife, W.D. GAY and wife, W.A. MYERS and wife, and W.H. DANCER and wife. Their household goods were transported via Hayrack line. The jolly people followed in proper style with carriage and four in hand. The neighborhood yearns mightily to sit all day watching for a bite. The fishing is fine, so fine it will probably take all of the ten to see a nibble, but the solid enjoyment. Oh! My! The weather is cool enough to sharpen the appetite and make a rousing campfire a necessity. Success to the rural visitors.
