Prospector's Tale of Gold Run and Daring Flight
An old prospector recounts a 1849 venture across the frontier. He describes finding a gold ledge, amassing about 9,850 pounds and $1,871,000 worth, fleeing from pursuing buck Indians, and arriving safely at settlements with his treasure. He claims to have carried every ounce himself and to have outrun danger in a dramatic escape.

The keeper notes the sick apish infant and the chimpanzee, named Tommy, showing etiquette and illness cues. The piece also mentions Chinese baby customs in Jiangxi and a Bengal saint in a grave with daily offerings and a curious money order, plus a fishing anecdote from Lewiston.
