the Thoreau Log.
22 July 1854. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  The hottest night,—the last.

  It was almost impossible to pursue any work out-of doors yesterday. There were but few men to be seen out. You were prompted often, if working in the sun, to step into the shade to avoid a sunstroke . . .

(Journal, 6:407-408)
