the Thoreau Log.
26 November 1860.

Concord, Mass. Thoreau writes in his journal:

  P.M.—To E. Hubbard’s Wood . . .

  Mother says that Lidy Bay, an Indian woman (so considered), used to live in the house beyond Cæsar’s and made baskets, which she brought to town to sell, with a ribbon about her hat . . . (Journal, 14:269-275).

Cincinnati, Ohio. Moncure Conway writes to Thoreau:

My dear Mr. Thoreau,

  We are thinking of issuing the Dial next year as a Quarterly instead of a Monthly; and I wish to ask if you will be so bountiful as to let me publish therein your Agricultural Address.

Your friend,

M. D. Conway.
