Table of Contents
All my life I had dreamed of owning a brook
Our debt to William C. Westbury
We carried down a little hair trunk
Cap'n Ben has an iron door-sill
The thought of going back to "six rooms and improvements"
The soft feet of the rain on the shingles
Elizabeth's ideas were not poetic
Our last night in the barn was not like the others
Paper-hanging is not a natural gift
There is nothing I wouldn't do for a bee—a reasonable bee
There was a place we sometimes visited to see the trout
There is compensation even for moving
There is work about making apple-butter
Lazarus's downfall was a matter of pigs
Westbury had advised against wheat
Deer—wild deer—on our own farm!
We often cooked by our fireplace
Under the spell of the white touch
