A condensed reminiscence recounts a winter era in Harrison County memory. Professor Sanders, a noted teacher and Institute director at George County, is portrayed through a parable about family, faith, and a wooden church woodpile mystery. The tale blends memory with local lore, ending in a reflective, half-forgotten connection to a distant church.
The narrator recalls a haunting sense of deja vu linked to Sanders birthplace, a dilapidated Baptist church once housing a great woodpile, and a converging clue from an Army Captain. He realizes he is in Sanders country, retracing a remembered lecture at Corydon and plans to share stories of Sanders from thirty five years ago.
The narrator, reflecting on his view of the legal profession, praises many Corydon lawyers for high standards while noting flaws. He recalls figures like Judge B. P. Douglas and Robert J. Bracewell, contrasts courtroom wit with moral reputations, and compares honesty and virtue among lawyers, doctors, and ministers.
