Fourteen-year-old Obadiah Merritt is living at home in Lee, New Hampshire with his mother Patience and their slave Pluvius, while Obadiah’s father is away in New Jersey involved with the Revolutionary War. The mayor approaches Obadiah wanting to hire him and his oxen Judge and Jury to cut one of the King’s pines for the mainmast of a ship under construction. Obadiah is thrilled with the opportunity to do a man’s job and to get a man’s wage. Patience Merritt is less pleased with the idea of her son doing dangerous work and being around what she considers to be “godless men with vile oaths.” The story follows Obadiah’s trials and tribulations as the young teamster works his way down the mast road.

I actually grew up living in one of the houses that use to rent rooms out to the men that worked on this. I swear this house was haunted by some of the men that lost their lives working these teams of oxen down the road. There were supposedly two bodies buried on the grounds of this home. Door knobs would turn. Footsteps going up the stairs. Doors locking themselves so you couldn't get out.Product details
