From the White House to Saratoga to Boston Narrative
A long prose piece recounts the office move to a new White House location, then a travelogue from Saratoga to Troy and Boston. It includes humorous encounters with a spirited child on a stage coach, a romantic entanglement with Mrs Thompson, another husband’s dramatic arrival, and a vivid portrait of post-Saratoga travel life.
