I suppose you know how we had a tame fox? We have got a tame muskrat what summeth about the house & is about as tame as a kitten, cats milk, parsnips roots, leaves of turnip cabbage beet& bean & pea pods & most everything else. His castle is in the closet west of the chimney whence he can sully out to the kitchen or pasture. He hath dug him a hole one entrance being in the closet & the other behind the backroom chimney. He is the pet, as cleanly as a kitten & not so mischievous. Meow being called mukky-mukkee,-mukky-he cometh. We caught a young wild cuck & kept it a spell but it would not grow tame & we let it go. One day Saul & I went up to Booby Brook fishing & caught 5 great pickerel, 2 eels & duck & one mussquash??. We have got about haying. Charles has got a cradle & cradled acres of wheat & 1 acre of oats. | I suppose you know how we had a tame fox?
