quote from Audubon's youth ... "Today I saw the swiftest skater
I ever beheld; backwards and forwards he went like the wind, even
leaping over large air holes fifteen or more feet across, and
continuing to skate without an instant’s delay. I was told he
was a young Frenchman, and this evening I met him at a ball,
where I found his dancing exceeded his skating; all the ladies
wished him as partner; moreover a handsomer man I never saw, his eyes alone command
attention; even his name, Audubon, is strange to me.”
— David Pawling, Mill Grove, PA; January, 1805, on 19-year-old
