Why Weep for the Dead in Fractured Verse
Fragmented poem reflecting on death and hope, questioning why we mourn when rest comes after toil. The speaker contemplates light after storm, distant memories, and the solace or sorrow found in parting. References to Vernon and other garbled lines hint at a dated inscription or tribute.

Sullivan’s Campaign Through Genesee Valley in 1779
A vivid chronicling of General Sullivan’s 1779 expedition against the Seneca and other Iroquois nations. The march from Wyoming to the Genesee valley, destruction of villages, crops, and orchards, and the widespread burning of Seneca towns are described with emphasis on the army’s discipline and the emotional reactions of soldiers recalling earlier frontier massacres. The piece contrasts the beauty of the valley with the devastation of war and notes the army’s hard march toward Tioga and beyond, culminating in the burning of the village at Genesee and the welfare of captives and casualties.
