FEBRUARY 1893
- Our new Kaysville newspaper "The Eagle" Vol. 1 First issue has been printed. It is spoken of in complimentary terms by those who have examined it. It is a nice, newsy 6 column paper that will be published every Thursday. Eva B. Smith is the name nailed to the masthead of this paper. She says: "It is impossible to run a paper to please everyone. While we are always ready to receive and profit by the advice of others, we will not be dictated to." -- Mrs. T. F. Roueche was seriously injured in a fall, and she is slowly recovering. -- The snow has almost disappeared again. -- A meeting of the Kaysville Brick and Tile Co. was held Monday and Amos H. Bishop and Arthur Smith were elected to fill vacancies on the board. -- James H. Larkin was seen on our streets again after having just returned from Southern Idaho. -- John S. Smith is recovering after a severe attack of la grippe. -- There was a merry company of some 40 young people at the Bonnemort residence last night. A social evening was given by the Misses Bonnemort. A sumptuous lunch of the most tempting viands (tasty dish) was served and music, mirth and games made up the evening. -- A son and heir was born to Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Bishop on Wednesday.
