167 It is not the stout fellow, with the black London hat, some- what rusty, who stands raking away cobs from the barn-floor, though the hat has seen -worshipful society, (having fallen on those blessed days when hats are as inseparable from the ^vearer as silk stocking or culotte,) and sports that breadth of brim by which you know me as far off as your indigenous omnibus.
That's Jem, the groom, to whom, with all its reminiscences, the hat is but a tile. Nor is it the half sailor-lookinof, w^or...ld-worn, never-smiling man, who is plying a flail upon that floor of corn, with a look as if he had learned the stroke with a cutlass, though, in his ripped and shredded upper garment, you might recognize the frogged and velvet redingote, native of the Rue de la Paix, which has fluttered on the Symplegades, and flapped the dust of the Acropolis. That is my tenant in the wood, who, having passed his youth and middle age with little content in a more re- sponsible sphere of hfe, has hmited his wishes to solitude and a supply of the wants of nature ; and, though quite capable of tell- ing story for story with ray old fellow traveller, probably thinks of it only to wish its ravelled frogs were horn buttons, and its bursted seams less penetrable by the rain.
