"New Hampshire as a physical entity deserves the attention it is getting, for it is a glorious old region, varied and picturesque and climatically delightful in Summer. But its people have certain duties to perform which they are not doing very well at present. One is to save their forests and another is to build better road. If they would increase their Summer industry to its possible extent, or even keep permanently that which they have they must give heed to these two important things."

Hodgdon, on Nov. 2, 177C. On Dec. 24 of the smae year, the Dalton was captured oy the British frigate Reasonable, Capt. Fitzherbert, and taken to Plymouth, England.
