The Curious Mix of Verse, War Pension Projections, and Sheep
A fragmented page blends poetry and musings on Eve and marriage with a Civil War pension forecast. It cites Massachusetts unions of soldiers to teenage brides, projects pensions into 1963 1986 and beyond, and notes a flock of about 200 sheep driven through Athens streets destined for Franklin County for wool. It ends with observations on the sheep’s cheerful bleats and rising value from $20 to $60.
