A 1913 postcard from Aunt Mollie contains just a few lines, including a mention of having "the gripp." I follow it into Kentucky newspapers from the same year, where reports of illness appeared alongside everyday updates about life in town.

Along the way, I uncover references to a remedy in a curious HYOMEI inhaler. Sometimes a single sentence is enough to reveal many small stories.
