H. D. Thoreau, The Maine Woods, "The Allegash and East Branch," §5; Sarah Orne Jewett, A Country Doctor, ch. 19B

from The Reading Hour

In Episode 32, Thoreau paddles through narrow waterways and seeks to carry his sixty-pound sack to Mud Pond by a path more swamp-like than muddy; we then conclude the 19th "Friends and Lovers" chapter of Jewett's A Country Doctor, the second half which registers Nan's perspective on her relationship with George Gerry.
