Next, if you will take half of the signs in that long street, and change their places once a month, and still manage to know their new positions accurately on dark nights. and keep up with these repeated changes without making any mistakes, you will understand what is required of a pilot's peerless memory by the fickle Mississippi.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
