The Suwanee River and a Miner’s Turbulent Memoir
Readable segments describe the Suwanee River voyage with river scenery and locals, then shift to a long first person reminiscence of an American convict from Summit County portaging life under harsh Mexican prison labor, detailing escape attempts and dramatic Pettibon experiences. The piece also touches Civil War era scenes, riverbank life, and a medical dental column note about artificial teeth and mastication.
