the Thoreau Log.
29 July 1856. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  Rhexia. Probably would be earlier if not mowed down. What I have called Hieracium Gronovii, with three cauline leaves and without veins, has achenia like H. venosum; so I will give it up. Its radical leaves are very hairy beneath, especially along midrib. Another smart rain, with lightning.

  Pratt lave me a chimney swallow’s nest, which he says fell clown Wesson’s chimney with young in it two or three days ago . . .

(Journal, 8:432-434)
