Clinton Age Cyclist
Stories of a guy who went around Clinton County on a bicycle. Many, many names are mentioned in these wonderful stories. These stories are from the the Clinton Morning Age, August and September 1895. There were also reprints in the Semi-Weekly Age. Evidently, they sent a man on a 'cycle' around the county to most of the farms and these are his stories.
