Excerpt from Letters of John Hay and Extracts From Diary, 1908, Vol. 2 I wish you could have been here and eaten grapes with me during the past week. They are of a most exquisite flavor and sweeter than I have ever seen them anywhere in the world. Especially the much abused Catawba, which people were thinking of ploughing up, has nobly asserted itself and produced a superb vintage. We are now through, and ready for the frost when it comes. The weather is lovely. The great river is wrapped at daybreak in a morning gown of fog, but soon brightens up, and the light has a regular spree on the many-colored foliage of the hills and the islands. I am doing nothing and find it easy to take. I walk a great deal and eat for several. I have gained two pounds in weight the first week. I have a very cordial letter from H - saying he thinks my decision the best one, that the publication in the Magazine will not hurt the book, but will be a positive advantage to it. So my mind is at rest on that score. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
