Six hens free range sparks country life reflections
A diary fragment recounts six New Hampshire hens escaping a pen, the thrill of outdoor life, and the threat of foxes. It shifts to weather, windblown Toronto scenes, acts of kindness toward a disabled woman, and a meditation on country living versus city life. It notes spring buds, a Toronto family moving to Wilson Avenue, and ends with a reference to Royal Canadian Navy cadet training in 1952.
