It quotes Emerson and references battles and civic virtue, urging individuals to uphold courage, self-reliance, and moral courage against conformity. It also comments on politics, Georgia law, and the value of virtue over money.
Uncle Bill Townsend of the Dahlonega Nugget still has a chance to win his fight against tick doctors who scour the country.

The delay frustrates the Governor’s family and prompts Uncle Bill to press complaints.
