Comments

Alexander Walsh, właściciel Walsh's General Store, był dobrze znany ze swojego zainteresowania ogrodnictwem. Stwierdzenie, że pan Walsh był interesującą osobą, byłoby niedomówieniem; jego ponad 30-letnia działalność wraz z jego różnorodnymi zainteresowaniami to tylko rzut oka na życie wybitnego człowieka, który dotrzymywał towarzystwa takim ludziom jak gubernator DeWitt Clinton, markiz de Lafayette i Henry Clay.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Alexander Walsh, the proprietor of Walsh's General Store, was well known for his interest in horticultural matters. To say Mr. Walsh was an interesting individual would be an understatement; his business of more than 30 years along with his varied interests are only a glimpse into the life of a prominent man who kept company with men of the stature as Governor DeWitt Clinton, the Marquis de Lafayette, and Henry Clay.
