the Thoreau Log.
8 April 1856. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  1 P.M.—To boat at Cardinal Shore, and thence to Well Meadow and back to port . . .

  Hear the crack of Goodwin’s piece close by, just as I reach my boat. He has killed another rat. Asks if I am bound up-stream . . .

  About 8.30 P.M., hear geese passing quite low over the river . . .

(Journal, 8:258-262)
