Notice
Morton Tusk
Receiving associate called Dock Mort — died behind Barrow & Sons loading doors after seals followed him home from the fish dock; coworkers found a brass house key that opened nothing yet.
Issue No. 12 — mini edition, two notices, two long readings
Bodies Built for Another World
A mini issue of the Midnight Edition
A walrus saving for a furnace that belonged to him; a records clerk measured on the wrong mat — two desk notices plus long-form readings filed from cold storage and the municipal annex.
Tonight, those arrangements have been broken behind cold-storage loading doors, on a municipal annex mat, near fish-dock pilings where seals stood in a way, beside a brass house key that opened nothing yet, and in conference rooms where inclusive forms had no exemption field.
