The Captain's Waterloo Reminiscences of a Nature Fakir
The Captain recalls logging in Maine with Bolivar the cantelope, bears, and Sam Busby in a tale of misadventure. A postmaster and Si exchange quips as the captain narrates rough winter capers, bear encounters, and a goat and cantelope scheme that ends with reformed animals and circus sales. The yarn blends frontier humor, danger, and a dash of Midwestern bravado.
