It makes me cry to think of them : prairie-hens, from Illinois
A barrel of odds and ends : possum and raccoon
Masterpiece of the universe : trout at Lake Tahoe
Heaven on the half shell : oysters and mussels in San Francisco
Dinner was leisurely served : Philadelphia terrapin
The most absorbing story in the world : sheep-head and croakers, from New Orleans
It is my Thanksgiving Day : cranberries
