NOTES:
[A] Berm. “The bank of a canal opposite the tow-path.”
[B] Local tradition accredits the Delawares with some remarkable cures of skin diseases through such means. Probably this spring was sulphur.
[C] Improbable as this incident seems, there are authentic accounts of similar occurrences that took place in this region at about the time of this story.
[D] Mesquit: “Either of two thorny shrubs or small trees of the bean family found in Texas or California—the larger and better known is the honey-mesquit, yielding the sweetish algarroba—pods much used for cattle-fodder.”
[E] Norther: “Specifically, a wind blowing over Texas to the Gulf, following the passage of a low area or cyclone. The contrast in temperature is generally very marked, as the preceding winds are warm, moist, southerly ones.”—Standard Dictionary.
[F] “Chaps”: leather leggings.
