The next day, early in the morning, I fat off

a private houfe, having rode this day about thirty 
miles. At thh plantation I obferved a large orchard 
of the European Mulberry tree (Morus alba) fome 
of which were grafted on flocks of the native Mul- 
berry (Morus rubra) ; thefe trees were cultivated 
for the purpofe of feeding filk- worms (phalaena 
bombyx). Haying breakfafied, I fat forward again.
