A fragmented slice from Mojave County notes and poems recounts a lonely miner living in a cabin along a mineral belt. The narrative tracks days by firelight and a letter that moves him to tears, hinting at memory, home, and enduring devotion to a mother’s love. It also includes scattered musings on economy, food purchases, and health tales, plus quirky local color and overheard conversations.
A fashion tailor recalls White House clothing spend from Grant’s era to Arthur. He notes Grant’s liberal purchases, Hayes’s costly but rare orders, Garfield’s improving taste, and Arthur’s aloofness from his old New York tailor. Cabinet members now shop in New York or Philadelphia for ready wear, with Brew Ster and Chandler mentioned among occasional buyers.
