Walden Chapter 6: Visitors
  1. Thoreau says that he loved people and society even during his days at Walden Pond.
    1. He entertained many people, as many as 25 to 30 at a time.
      1. If he had only one visitor, he offered a very modest dinner. If any more he did not offer dinner because he believed it a mistake of society to rest one's reputation on the dinners someone gives.
    2. Thoreau has many visitors in Walden Pond, most of which he turned away.
      1. One visitor Thoreau spent some time with was a Canadian wood chopper, he was a simple man who interested Thoreau because he was content in his quiet and solitary life of chopping trees and hunting animals.
        1. Other visitors include those who ask for water which he points them to the pond.
          1. Poor guests who ask for hospitality and are turned away because "objects of charity are not guests."
            1. Runaway slaves which Thoreau points north.
              1. Other guests Thoreau had were children, men of business, reformers, ministers, and many others.
