Description by Temperature Collectanea from 1796 to
Wilds America Octavo
Vo.1.p.395
In order to avoid
the expence of feeding
many (cattle] thro' the
winter, as soon as
the frost sets in they
generally kill cattle
and poultry sufficient
to last them till the
return of Spring. The
carcases are burried
in the ground and
covered with a heap
of Snow, and as they
are wanted they are
dug up, Vegetables
are laid up in the
same manner and
they continue very
good throughout the
Winter.
Longs Travels in
America 1791. p.85
The weather being
more moderate I
sent my men to the
lakes to look after
the Nets which had
been under the Ice
a considerable time
the severity of the
season not having
allowed us to examine
them for near a
Month, when to our
great mortification
they were found almost
rotten and not
a single Fish.—
