Trout Lunch and a Lost Vermont Quote
A rustic fishing vignette describes cooking trout on a flat stone by a fire in a Vermont stream, with bacon, bread, and honey. The piece shifts to a Hartford lawyer debating the origin of the term lot for land as an Americanism tied to township parceling. It also includes quips on lightning affecting watches, rainwater etiquette in a hotel, and light mockery of social pretensions.
