- Our streets and sidewalks are in a very bad condition, a muddy mess.

-- The question for debate before the Kaysville Historical and Debating Club is "Resolved: That the Cable is of More Benefit to Mankind Than the Mariner's Compass."

-- The Western Union Telegraph Company has established an office at the Kaysville Union Pacific Depot, the Deseret Telegraph line being no longer in use.

--Our neighbors at Layton are rather lively. Two fights are reported to have occurred within a few days.

-- Sickness, as yet, shows no signs of abating.

-- Mr. Joseph Egbert, one of the Pioneers of '47 is quite seriously ill.

-- A gentleman giving his name as T. S. Bulmer, and representing himself as an MD from London, England has taken up a permanent residence here. He will commence the practice of medicine in our little burg.

-- There is some talk of beginning a newspaper here in Kaysville if the people will sustain it, steps are also being taken to induce the Hat Factory to locate from Ogden to Kaysville.

-- Mrs. Woolley, wife of Henry Woolley, one of Kaysville's oldest residents died last Tuesday at the age of 79 years. The funeral services were held on Thursday at 1 O' Clock. She was born July 25, 1811 in Yoxall, Staffordshire, England and emigrated to America in 1844, and to Utah in 1849.

     On August 1, 2018 Kristine decided to begin a series of excerpts from the newspaper called These excerpts were taken from articles about local happenings/gossip/announcements etc. It tells a story and gives a feel for Kaysville back in the day. 
    Kaysville Kinks were originally published on the the Facebook group page, Our Kaysville Story.  Click on the link to join the group page.

     Kristine is an amazing lady who loves the town she grew up in, her family, and the color purple.
