581 - L. Nov. 9:4/4 - Brainard's hall was packed last night to hear election
returns. M. S. Castle was called upon to make a speech. He worked his
hearers up to a perfect tempest. He was followed by several other speakers,
the last one being interrupted by a drunken "Copperhead," who was immediately
squelched. Dick Dockstader sang two songs after which the crowd dispersed
amid loud cheers and the singing of "My Country 'Tis of Thee" and "John
Brown." - (8)
