Saturday The new creature eats too much fruit. We are going to run short, most likely. "We" again—that is its word; mine too, now, from hearing it so much. Good deal of fog this morning. I do not go out in the fog myself. The new creature does. It goes out in all weathers, and stumps right in with its muddy feet. And talks. It used to be so pleasant and quiet here. SATURDAY THE NEW CREATURE EATS TOO MUCH FRUIT WE'RE GOING TO RUN SHORT MOST LIKELY WE AGAIN THAT IS ITS WORD MINE TOO NOW FROM HEARING IT SO MUCH GOOD DEAL OF FOG THIS MORNING I DO NOT GO OUT IN THE FOG MYSELF THE NEW CREATURE DOES IT GOES OUT IN ALL WEATHERS AND STUMPS RIGHT IN WITH ITS MUDDY FEET AND TALKS IT USED TO BE SO PLEASANT AND QUIET HERE
n it so. I have never heard the human voice before, and any new and strange sound intruding itself here upon the solemn hush of these dreaming solitudes offends my ear and seems a false note. And this new sound is so close to me; it is right at my shoulder, right at my ear, first on one side and then on the other, and I am used only to sounds that are more or less distant from me. Friday The naming goes recklessly on, in spite of anything I can do. I had a very good name for the estate, and it was musical and pretty —GARDEN-OF-EDEN. Privately, I continue to call it that, but not any longer publicly. The new creature says it is all woods and rocks and scenery, and therefore has no resemblance to a garden. Says it looks like a park, and does not look like anything but a park. Consequently, without consulting me, it has been new-named —NIAGARA FALLS PARK. This is sufficiently high-handed, it seems to me. And already there is a sign up: KEEP OFF THE GRASS My life is not as happy as it was.  SLUR BUT I DO NOT MEAN IT SO I HAVE NEVER HEARD THE HUMAN VOICE BEFORE AND ANY NEW AND STRANGE SOUND INTRUDING ITSELF HERE UPON THE SOLEMN HUSH OF THESE DREAMING SOLITUDES OFFENDS MY EAR AND SEEMS A FALSE NOTE AND THIS NEW SOUND IS SO CLOSE TO ME IT IS RIGHT AT MY SHOULDER RIGHT AT MY EAR FIRST ON ONE SIDE AND THEN ON THE OTHER AND I AM USED ONLY TO SOUNDS THAT ARE MORE OR LESS DISTANT FROM ME FRIDAY THE NAMING THING GOES RECKLESSLY ON IN SPITE OF ANYTHING I CAN DO I HAD A VERY GOOD NAME FOR THE ESTATE AND IT WAS MUSICAL AND PRETTY GARDEN OF EDEN PRIVATELY I CONTINUE TO CALL IT THAT BUT NOT ANY LONGER PUBLICLY THE NEW CREATURE SAYS IT IS ALL WOODS AND ROCKS AND SCENERY AND THEREFORE HAS NO RESEMBLANCE TO A GARDEN SAYS IT LOOKS LIKE A PARK AND DOES NOT LOOK LIKE ANYTHING BUT A PARK CONSEQUENTLY WITHOUT CONSULTING ME IT HAS BEEN NEW NAMED NIAGARA FALLS PARK THIS IS SUFFICIENTLY HIGH HANDED IT SEEMS TO ME AND ALREADY THERE IS A SIGN UP KEEP OFF THE GRASS MY LIFE IS NOT AS HAPPY AS IT WAS
