Jeanette Haskell. Mr. Haskell has bought him a farm in Dover and mov'd there. Mr. Lee intends to move, to Brownville next week. Mr. Hartnett is dangerously sick, is thought to be in consumption. Charles's yearling Colt has been severely hooked by a Cow, probably the same beast that hooked the little one before Alfred went away - done in both cases when they were running at large in the champaign Country.
I have never seen a specimen of Solanum dulcamara. I suspect that your Solanum, of Sunapee Ledges, is dulcamarus changed in appearance by situation. Of the three species in Gray S. Carolinense is low; Stem erect, prickly (1 ft high); berries in loose ?, globular, Orange yellow; & is probably not found so far north as N.H.: - S. Hignum, Low, berries globular, black: S. Dulcamara, Stem climbing: oval, Scarlet berries, in small cymes; which perhaps answers to your "bright red oblong" description. Have heard nothing about Eliab being Grand Scribe of S. of T. I dont know what he'll do this winter but think it likely he will stay at Browns. With what medicament shall I lubricate my Style to give it that due degree of flexibility & undulating pulchritude of movement which it is so far from attaining?
