Winter Neighbors and the General’s March Tactics
From John Burroughs in the December Century, the piece contrasts a wild neighbor bird’s stubborn comfort with General Sherman’s winter camp life. It notes the general’s endurance, minimal tents, candle-box HQ, and steady praise for troops, while mixing reflective sketches of a bird’s routine.

Dean Richmond Showed Bold Rail Boss Demeanor
A historical anecdote recalls Dean Richmond, then owner of the New York Central, aboard a New York Oswego bound train. In Fulton a stout man disrupted a couple by opening a window, provoking a heated exchange that ends with the remark that Richmond owns the road and would not face arrest. The tale illustrates his autocratic temper and influence over conduct aboard his line.
