Dr. G. G. Wilkins explains how federal gaugers measured barrels and proof under the 1862 and 1864 revenue acts. He covers the 231-cubic-inch gallon, the diagonal rod, the wantage stick, and chalk and stencil marks, then confesses to the shaved staves, doctored hoops, and cold spring-house dips that kept his taxable gallons low, along with the day Barnaby turned a Concord gauger's hickory rod into toothpicks. Blue Ridge herbalist Clara Higgins brings new mountain stories: a rain-washed chalk count, 'forty-rod' and other barrel slang, frozen applejack, and a cooper paid by the wet inch. Wilkins also takes Cletus 'Rabbit' Miller's call about hickory ashes and red oak shavings in the thump keg and debunks the gunpowder proof test at the anvil.
