October 30

The scarlet oak leaves have still some brightness. See October 30, 1858 ("The scarlet oak especially withers very slowly and gradually, and retains some brightness to the middle of November,") See also A Book of the Seasons, by Henry Thoreau, The Scarlet Oak

I see that scarlet
oak leaves have still some brightness--
the latest of the oaks.

Scarlet oaks wither
slowly and retain brightness
to mid-November.
October 30, 1858
