S.P. May p.539 Mr Sears was born in the "South Gore," now known as Webster,
MA, on the border of Douglass Woods, and near the Nipmuck Indian reservation.
Before he was five years old he formed an abiding friendship for a young
Indian named "Nessmuk," (wood duck,) from whom he imbibed his love for
woodcraft, and became a devotee of nature in her wildest and roughest of
aspects; a lover of field sports; a hunter, angler, trapper and canoeist; an
uneducated man withal, save the education that comes of long and close
communion with nature, and a perusal of the best English authors.
Endowed by nature with an instinctive love of poetry, Mr Sears early dropped
into the habit of rhyming, jotting down his thoughts on paper, or as often
happened, when in the woods, on birch bark.
Under the pseudonym of "nessmuk," he has written much for the "Spirit of the
Times," and "Forest and Stream," and has published a work entitled "Woodcraft,"
and a volume of poetry called "Forest Runes."
During the Civil War, Mr Sears served in the "Bucktail" Regt PA Vols, and was
discharged for physical disability at Camp Curtin, Harrisburg, PA. Now resides
in Wellsboro, PA.

BIOGRAPHY: Letter from Bob Sears - Jerome, Christine, "An Adirondack
Passage", HarperCollins, 1995; book review in Smithsonian, Feb 1996, p 126 by
Donald Dale Jackson. 'George Washington Sears was an obscure 19th
century Pennsylvania shoemaker, a gnarled, self-sufficient, feisty little
man--"nearly as big as a pound of soap after a hard day's washing, " a friend
described him--whose lifelong joy it was to camp and canoe in the Eastern
woods, especially New York's Adirondack Mountains....' "Sears wrote about
the loon '[The bird] settled within ten rods of the canoe, raised himself on
hind legs (they are very hind, and he has no others), turned his white, clean
breast to me and gave me his best weird, strange song. Clearer than a clarion,
sweeter than a flute, loud enough to be heard for miles. Never, as my soul
lives, will I draw a bead on a loon. He is the very spirit of the wildwoods.
Fisherman he may be. He catches his daily food after his nature... Don't,
please don't, emulate Adirondack Murray [ a local hunter] and waste two dozen
cartridges in the attempt to demolish a loon.' On his tombstone he wanted
'Life is the dullest of jokes--/He's a fool who supposes it serious./ Death
puts a nub to the hoax/ And the rest is immensely miysterious.'
