Thoreau recounts two brothers launching a boat at Concord in August 1839. They describe the modest craft, its cargo of potatoes and melons, and a tranquil downstream drift past willows, lilies, and river life as nature signals late summer in the Merrimack region. The prose blends detail with quiet reflections on the river’s scenery.
Excerpt recounts two playful burros that followed a narrator for years, displaying clear individuality and mischief. Their keen sense of misbehavior and sly glances reveal a long companionship. Also notes on early portable electric or oil well drilling rigs capable of two miles depth, 178 tons, and a movable, telescoping derrick.
