Byron Hall Dilemma ~ Lucas County, Iowa
The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Saturday, September 7, l878
BYRON HALL says he wishes he was twins, then he'd fool some of the girls of this town awfully.The other evening he had a pretty partner engaged for the dance and went after her, escorted her to the ball, had a good time, and then discovered next day that he had taken her twin sister, who is so near like the one he engaged that the oldest inhabitant don't know them apart.As both are accomplished and pretty as rosebuds, it didn't make any difference, but it must put a fellow in a queer position when he is talking to his girl and ain't certain whether it is her or someone else.
