Charles Lane and Bower wrote prolifi- cally to different papers. The Herald of Freedom^ Digitized by VjOOQ IC 72 ' BRONSON ALCOTTS FRUITLANDS the Vermont Telegraph and the New York Tribune of that summer are full of their writings. Mr. Alcott's Diary furnishes clear evidence of his purposes and hopes: — " I would abstain from the fruits of oppression and blood, and am seeking means of entire inde- pendence. This, were I not holden by penury un- justly, would be possible. One miracle we have wro...ught nevertheless, and shall soon work all of them: Our wine is water, flesh, bread — drugs, i fruits; and we defy meekly the satyrs all, and I .£sculapians.
