Echoes of the River and a Necklace of Eyes
A mixed prose and narrative piece describes a dawn river excursion with Morris, observing muscadines, a yellow hawk, and a catfish basket woven from oak splints. It shifts to W. E. Curtis’s Peru eye artifacts, then to a Georgia river scene, a bullace vine trap, and a public notice of Hall’s Georgia Chill Remedy.
