Landlord scam and wax statue con in colonial tale
A long rambling tale describes a landlord of dubious habits and a fake wax statue bargain, detailing a shady interaction over a bottle and a price dispute, followed by a comic chase and a staged attraction gone wrong in a small town. It also includes a life aboard scenes and a dramatic catamount attack story from Maine folklore, plus travel notes from Vesuvius and a river voyage anecdote.
