New Jersey Courier 10 Oct 1930 Mrs. Ethel Clayton of this place, through her attorney, William J. Blair of Point Pleasant, has started suit for divorce against Capt. Arthur P. Clayton, member of a well known Silverton family. She claims they were married Sep 11, 1905 and had lived together till about a year ago, when he drove her from their home by his cruelty. He denies they were ever married.

New Jersey Courier 6 Oct 1910 Channel bass bit for 3 Asbury Park fishermen at Sea Side Park Sunday. Each got a dandy fish. Joe Clayton's weighted 37 pounds; Winfield Scott and Richard Anderson each got a 32 pounder. They fished a mile up the coast from Sea Side Park and got into such a mess of weak fish that they had considerable trouble keeping them off their lines long enough to get to the bass. They brought home 60 of the best of the weak fish taken. The three channel bass put up brave fights and it required from three quarter hours to one and one quarter hours to land them. The three fishermen went down Saturday night and returned Sunday night.

New Jersey Courier 27 Sep 1900 Last Thursday night the young people of this place gave a surprise party in honor of Miss Amelia Bagley, which was also a farewell party in honor of Harry WILBERT, who sails Oct. 1st for Cuba, where he intends to spend the winter. SeaSide Park will miss Mr. WILBUR [*note difference in spelling], as he is very popular. Wallace M. NIXON returned to Pemberton last Tuesday, having closed the station at Berkeley Arms for the season of 1900. School opened last Monday with Roland BRITTON of Bayville as teacher. "I never can forget you," seems to be the latest saying among the young people here. I wonder why.
