Book Description
Excerpt from The Old Continental, Vol. 1 of 2: Or the Price of Liberty The old stone-house stood on the brow of a little knoll, 'mting a stream something between a brook and a 'river, that meandered and murmured among willows and alders, at the foot of a range of high hills, which approached not so near but that they left long strips of rich meadows between their base and the banks of the stream. In the rear of the house, at no great distance, was a pond of some half a mile in circumference, and so shallow, in many places, that a variety of aquatic shrubs grew out above the surface, where congregated clouds of bl ack-birds, whose mu sic made but poor amends for their depredations on the newly planted corn-fields. This was not the only music; for, of a still summer evening, the sonorous bull-frog ever and anon twanged his horn, aecom panied by a mingled variety of strange harmonies.
