A very thorough description, reprinted from The Clinton Republican, of a week spent camping in July. It mentions scenery, fording the Little River, Cade{\textquoteright}s Mountain, visiting mountain families, the view from the top of Gregory{\textquoteright}s Bald, lady-bugs that "swarmed by the quart," rainstorms, food, a Dunkard church service, and the return trip. Followed by a parody verse about the insects, food, and difficulties of camping in the Smokies, signed by G.D.B.
