From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for July 21, 1911:

“More rain fell this afternoon and the indications are for more moisture this evening. There were light showers at intervals almost all day and it is quite evident that the drouth in Kansas is no more for 1911.”

“Dr. Simmons yesterday removed a needle from the hand of Miss Agnes Gray that had been lodged in the girl’s hand for six months. The girl was washing some clothes when a needle in one of the garments was entirely buried in her hand. It caused her considerable pain but was not removed until yesterday.”
