From the Lawrence Daily World for Jan. 23, 1908: “Does Lawrence want a Chautauqua next summer? The Lawrence Committee last night appointed a group to study the matter but so far there does not seem to be a lot of feeling for such an event. Other towns, however, have found an assembly of top speakers and performers to be a major event, so there will be many looking to see if that might be good here. : Eph. Vaneil has been bound over for trial on the charge of murdering his wife with poison. The trial is due in the February term of court.”
