Thirteenth Year Revision of a Poem on the Wash-Tub
A fragmentary historical note presents a revision titled The Glos for the threshers and town-totka. It evokes old wash-tubs and farm life, recalling the back-breaking labor of washing and a vow to a better life, with imagery of milk cows bees and mink beds.
Bunko on Shipboard and Ward the Old Sailor
An on deck tale on a Chicago shipboard bunko session among raw recruits. Watkins recalls Ward known as Starboard Nose, a rough, long‑tuned old sailor famed for clever hustles and a nose that told of many adventures. The crowd, led by Ward, recalls his past schemes and the rough humor that closed a seafaring anecdote filled with sharp talk and old salty legends.
