One of our main backstops, C. E. Buckland, from Falls Mills, was her
Monday ruminating around. There are not many fellows of his type left in
the country. (Buckland) Said he was talking to a traveling man the other
day who gave him this one:

A guest at the hotel gave the clerk a hundred dollar bill to keep
overnight. The clerk had to send the bill to the grocery to buy goods,
and the grocer kept the bill to square the hotel's account. The grocer
paid the tailor the hundreed (sic) dollar bill on account. The tailor
paid the drug store the hundred dollar bill for what he owed. The drug
store paid the hotel bill for board, and next morning when the guest was
ready to leave he called for his bill, which was turned over to him. He
immediately tore it up stating it was a counterfeit bill. You and finish
the story

 This line immediately followed this article: Typo or whatever?
