Bloomington (Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana) Republican Progress, October 5, 1881, p. 3. Note: This appears to be a reference to Alice (Howe) Polk, who married William L. Polk on 12 Feb 1867 in Monroe County, Indiana, and was living in Vicksburg, Mississippi according to the 1880 U. S. census. Mrs. Polk, of Vicksburg, Miss., who spent the summer with her father's family (James Howe) has returned to her home in the South.
