Found a 1970s local paper article about a strike my grandpa never mentioned
It was about 200 workers at a plant in Dayton, and the story just stopped after three days. I asked my mom and she said the paper got a lot of pressure to drop it. Has anyone else found a news story that just cuts off like that?

My uncle's obituary in the 80s just vanished after one edition.

Old newspapers are full of weird little mysteries like that.

Right, the weird little mysteries. I once spent a whole afternoon trying to track down a follow-up to a 1923 story about a guy who claimed he trained his cat to fetch the mail. It just ends with "Mr. Higgins expects further progress by Tuesday." I never found a Tuesday paper. I got way too into it for a story about a mail cat.
