The fragment contemplates a travel of lovers toward imagined realms beyond Avalon and the City of God graves. It blends vivid nature imagery with longing, asking the beloved where happiness lies and whether the feet have reached a destined, distant land as music and memory drift at night.

An older man traveling in the Tennessee mountains seeks shelter for the night but is refused by a wary woman. He pressures for a place to sleep, offering to pay, while a captain aboard a large steamer tries to manage crew and a dangerous voyage.

A jumble of excerpts describes a walnut hulling device with a grindstone like wheel and a two inch wood whorl, plus long-winded farm hints on raising horses, butter output, poultry, grain, and feed practices.

A detailed description of a 44 by 19 foot horse barn plan featuring stalls, a central drive, and a mow with two grain bins. The structure includes a wide drive way, doors, a passage, and a stair to the mow. Built from hardwood and shiplap, it costs between $900 and $1,000.

A fragmentary agricultural piece discusses grain substitutes for pigs and livestock. It suggests peas and vines as labor-saving feeds, notes pigs harvest pods themselves, and mentions soil and fencing tactics to manage pastures.
