The Log of the Water Wagon: or The Cruise of the Good Ship 'Lithia'
The Log of the Water Wagon was compiled from memoranda found in a floating milk-bottle with a patent stopper, flung overboard just before the good ship "Lithia" foundered in a fearful simoom off White Rock Point. The notes, pencilled in a trembling hand, on the backs of blank temperance pledges, I O U's, and wine-lists, were barely legible, testifying to the fearful condition of the unknown writer's tongue, manifestly incapable of moistening the pencil.

Full Description
The Log of the Water Wagon was compiled from memoranda found in a floating milk-bottle with a patent stopper, flung overboard just before the good ship "Lithia" foundered in a fearful simoom off White Rock Point. The notes, pencilled in a trembling hand, on the backs of blank temperance pledges, I O U's, and wine-lists, were barely legible, testifying to the fearful condition of the unknown writer's tongue, manifestly incapable of moistening the pencil. With the notes were enclosed a Water Wagon folder, showing itinerary, rules and regulations, points of interest touched at, etc., a fragment of a clipping from the New York Sun, and sundry moral reflections upon life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The editors have preserved, as far as possible, the spirit and literary style of the Log-keeper, whose identity is an interesting conjecture. His fate, and that of his fellow passengers, is shrouded in mystery.
