A distressed lyric fragment speaks of calm in danger and steadfast resolve. It references spiritual warfare, a friendless struggle, and endurance through weary days, urging courage against fear and soft surrender. The piece reads like a martial and devotional meditation on resilience.
By Danjamín Moreie recounts a clear day ride to Fulton and Whetstone's Tavern where a reunion with Col. J. leads to a remembered turkey hunt from 1804. The narrator recalls sudden errors in speech, misfires, and a lifetime of near misses with wild turkeys, ending with a last hunt in January 1807 near a boarding place.
The text recounts wild turkeys in Ohio in 1804 to 1832 and a Goshen town plat claim sparked by Jesse Wood at Whetstone's tavern. It then shifts to Breckenridge and Lane’s victory, Lincoln’s election, Hamlin’s selection, and Southern resolve, urging Confederacy options and warning Northern power.
An excerpt discusses secession pressures in the South, urging preservation of the Union and citing Jefferson, Washington, and Jackson. It references editorials, nullification era echoes, and warnings against disunion while contrasting Northern agitation and Southern rhetoric. A parable about a barking dog ends with a pun about forgiveness.
The piece surveys several items including a Paris road project circling the city within fortifications, census data across Spain and the United States, and reflections on self-command and steadfast virtue. It notes Spain’s population at 15 464 000 and Madrid at 281 170, Baltimore at 214 037, and California’s expected congressional representation. It also mentions a fire at Ohio Penitentiary and a polemical view on self-control and moral resolve.
