A nostalgic spoken word piece recalls balmy fall evenings and family scenes at home. The voice moves from childhood dreams to adult years, observing mother and father, a yard, and the scent of musk in the air as time slips by.
A man retells sayings of Rew ben Pettibone from Sinnemahoning about precise deer heart shots, avoiding bear kidneys, and killing game cleanly. He warns against wasteful or painful methods and cites beheading birds and paralyzing game with nerve-focused shots.
An anecdote blends hunting misadventure with a swift surprise. The narrator tracks a sheep thief, contemplates vengeance, then notices a buck and a pheasant pairing. A gunshot kills the bear and the birds, while a passing observer reacts with bemused approval. The scene shifts to a note on Quaker integrity from Youth's Companion and a recipe for pickles.
An aging travel aid declines in use as railroads guides and tourist firms make journeys safer and cheaper. The piece contrasts couriers with modern travel ease, noting savings for buyers may offset costs and recounts early postage stamp history with the first purchaser and the penny post.
