The Syracuse Standard of July 27, 1859, reported that the "accomplished artist" Augustus Rockwell of Buffalo "left yesterday afternoon for the fishing grounds of the Walton Club in Brown's Tract."

Thompson made no claim for Rockwell's talent as a hunter or fisherman but reported his quick wit when the bottom of their canoe struck a snag on (showing 500 of 2541 characters). |
