Better late than never. An elderly man returned a magazine checked out from his New Hampshire library more than 130 years late — and would have racked up a whopping $12,055 in fines if late fees hadn’t been frozen. The September 1894 issue of “The Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine” mysteriously ended up in the hands of John Hanson, 84, and hung around his home for decades, the Concord Public Library posted on social media earlier this month.
