From the Lawrence Daily World for Sept. 23, 1910:

“There is living in Lawrence at the present time, a nephew of John Brown. C. H. Brown does not particularly enjoy the notoriety which his distinguished kinsman is receiving. He defends his uncle’s memory, however while admitting that perhaps he was a fanatic on the question of slavery…. Another case of infantile paralysis, the seventh to occur in Douglas county this summer, has been diagnosed. The child is the 18 months old son of Prof. and Mrs. H. P. Caldwell, 1705 Tennessee. Prof. Caldwell is an instructor at Haskell…. A religious clan, known as the Holy Rollers, or the Holy Sanctified as they wish to be called, who have been saving souls in Topeka, have become discouraged and threaten to invade Atchison and Lawrence…. There will be joy once more in Boyville, when Supt. Smith announces that the 2,330 pupils in the Lawrence schools will be granted a half-holiday next Friday. The board is granting the holiday in order that there will be no excuse for the youngsters to miss the races, the ball game, the street carnival, the roller coaster, or any of the dozen attractions at the Fair.”
