And Deacon Henzy was to carry it with care to a old male Deacon in Zoar, bed rid. Wall, as I say, that is the very first I had read about their bein' any idee promulgated of wimmens settin' up on the Conference. And I, in spite of Josiah Allen's excitement, wuz in favor on't from the very first.
The hotel contains a queer, old-fashioned bar, at which the general public may drink beer, cider, or California wine. In the evening the sitting-room is filled with the hired laborers of the society, and with the smoke of their pipes. Such is Zoar.
The house where she once lived wuz a not over big house of brick, no bigger nor better than Bildad Henzy's over in Zoar, and looked some like it. Josiah said it wuz so silly to poke clear over to Italy to see this little narrer house when we could see better ones to home any day. Miss Meechim said that it didn't look so genteel as she expected, and Arvilly made a slightin' remark about it.

Here is a footman, dusty and tired, who comes with lagging steps. He stops, removes his hat, as he should to such a tree, puts his mouth to the spout, and takes a long pull at the lively water. And then he goes on, perhaps to Zoar, perhaps to a worse place.
At Economy the chiefs have always been appointed by the spiritual head, and for life; and the people, as among the Shakers and Eben-Ezers, trouble themselves but little about the management. The same is true of Zoar and Bethel, practically, though the Baumelers elect trustees. Aurora is still under the rule of its founder.
Here we are, all of us who are near and dear by the ties of blood, in this woodland Zoar, which hath indeed been a Zoar in the late troublous years, utterly untouched, which again we regard as a proof that Anlaf does not live, for he could have found us out had his revenge led him to do so when Sweyn was in Mercia.
