the Thoreau Log.
5 July 1855. Cape Cod, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  In middle of the forenoon sailed in the Melrose . . .

  Went to Gifford’s Union House (the old Tailor’s Inn) in Provincetown . . . Talked to Nahum Haynes, who is making fisherman’s boots there . . .

  Talked with a man who has the largest patch of cranberries here,—ten acres,—and there are fifteen or twenty acres in all . . .

(Journal, 7:432)
