Synopsis

Excerpt from Two Years Behind the Plough, or the Experience of a Pennsylvania Farm-Boy: Giving a True and Faithful Account of Life on a Bucks County Farm as He Found It During an Apprenticeship of Two Years

The patient, plodding oxen which at one time formed so conspicuous a feature of nearly all Bucks County farms, and which play so prominent a part in my story, are no longer seen there. They have long since fallen into disuse, and a yoke of them now on any of the roads would excite as much curiosity as an old-fashioned stage-coach, or one of the big Conestoga wagons formerly in such general favor.
