Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Colonial Facts and Fictions Residents in foreign lands Often think that it is an impertinence if a passing stranger write about them. Those who have been for a long time resident in a country seldom write a description Of their experiences. About many things they seem to have learnt how little they really know, Whilst to things of every day occur rence they have become so accustomed, that they do not think them worthy Of description. The persons who do write, and who delight to write about a place, are the birds of passage. These persons know very little about their subject. The very fact Of only knowing a little about a place adds a. Charm to an attempt at its description. If you know everything about it you are inclined to write a series of facts, while if you only know a little, there is room for the exercise of the imagination, and the production becomes a combination of truths and untruths.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Thirteen Colonies This book is intended as an historical reader, an elementary text-book in the history of our country, or as an introduction or supplement to any of the excellent text-books on the history of the United States now in use. The aim has been not only to interest children in the great men of their own country, but to stimulate them to the cultiva tion of the lofty virtues of which they read, and to instil within their hearts a deep love for their native land. All the main facts in our early history have been given as sim ply and vividly as possible, and the lessons of patriotism, truth fulness, courage, patience, honesty, and industry taught by the lives of our principal heroes are carefully enforced. Great pains have also been taken to relate all the well-known anecdotes and quote the famous speeches which are so frequently alluded to in our current literature. Although this book ends with the Revolutionary War, the story of our country is continued on the same lines in a companion volume entitled The Story of the Great Republic; yet each book is independent of the other and can be used separately. So simply worded as to be easily intelligible to average children of ten or twelve years of age, the text is further arranged in short paragraphs, to facilitate its use as a reader in large classes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Colonial Free-Lance I thank God I am no coward, else that which I am about to write would he unwritten for loss of subject matter. Nor do I make a boast of my bravery, seeing it is a thing born in a man and not of his own making. For, as it ill becomes a woman to take to herself the credit of her beauty (for the reason that it is fashioned by a power not her own), so would it appear vainglorious in me to laud myself for not playing the part of a child when necessity demanded the action of a man. And, furthermore, if in the following I seem to make much of my quickness of brain and power of arm, let me here disclaim all unjust pride in the matter, for my size and strength are things I owe to a cause higher than myself, and as for my wits, why, they are but those God gave me, and they worked as he saw fit to have them. As for bravery, I take it to he as much a part of a man as the fashion of his nose or set of his chin - by no means a thing for which he can claim self-merit (though I know the world holds a different opinion), and is but little more than sound nerves soundly strung, having nothing to do with rectitude of purpose.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bay-Path: A Tale of New England Colonial Life For Whatever of plot there may be in the fol lowing tale, history must, in a general way, be held responsible. The names, localities, char acters, and leading incidents are historical. The tale is, in reality, a section or segment of history, withdrawn from its location and relations, and endowed with a life and spirit which aim to be consistent and harmonious with the body of facts with which they are brought into association. Had the writer felt at liberty to develop his plot entirely at his will, or, rather, had he not felt that history was a more reliable, guide to the ends sought to be attained than imagination, some portions of the work, which may not be deemed artistic, would have been differently con structed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Vytal a Tale of the Lost Colony N O epoch in American history is more essentially romantic than that in which, for a few years, less than one hundred colonists from England lived on the island of Roanoke, off the coast of old Virginia. Nevertheless, although the history of our continent, from the landing of Columbus to the end of the Span ish-american war, has been exhaustively exploited in fiction, the pages dated 1587 - 1598 seem to have been left unturned. Yet the life of the Roanoke colony contained not only adventure, hazard, and privation in a far greater degree than the maturer settlements of later years, but also an underlying emblematical element, and in its end an insoluble riddle. In being thus both mystical and mysterious, it paramountly inspires romance. The mystery has filled many pages of history, but always as an enigma without solution. The fate of the colony is utterly unknown, historians of necessity relegating it to the limbo of oblivion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Romances of Colonial Days Once a poet with the gold of fact and the alloy of his own fancy fashioned a poem which he called a "Ring." In writing these "Romances of Colonial Days" I have endeavored to keep the poet's "Ring" always in mind, to make them rings of romance in which gold and alloy each has its part. Musty old records, letters, and diaries of men and women long since dead have furnished me my gold; and it is surprising how much of gold, facts still breathing the life, the love, the joys and sorrows of a bygone day, lies hidden in these dry-looking mines of history. In many of the "Romances" the gold has very nearly shaped itself into a ring, requiring little help from the alloy of fancy; not only do the characters of these "Romances" live and love, joy and sorrow according to historic fact, they even speak according to historic fact.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Colonial Reformer, Vol. 3 of 3 IN the strange exceptional condition of nervous tension up to which that marvellous instrument, the human harp of a thousand strings, ' is capable of being wound, under the pressure of dread and perplexity, there is a type of visitor whose face is always hailed with pleasure. This is a fact as unquestionable as the converse proposition. For the been-emu under such delicate and peculiar circumstances, helpfulness, sympathy, and decision are indispensable. Of no avail are weakly condolences or mild assenting pity. The power to dispense substantial aid may or may not be wanting. But the friend in need must have the moral power and clearness of mental vision which render decisiveness possible and just. His fiat, favourable or unfavourable, lets in the light, separates real danger from undefined terror, offers security for well-grounded hope, or persuades to the calmness of resignation.

Children must learn to read both to and for themselves; to get the sense by the appeal of the printed page to the eye, as well as of the spoken words to the ear. That children do not acquire this power generally in the primary and grammar schools is known to secondary school teach ers; repeatedly. In my high school classes I have found that reading twenty pages of a comparatively easy history or even of a novel, was a time-taking task without definite results in the way of securing the ideas. Since this power cannot be acquired without years of training, a beginning should be made in the elementary schools. There is no doubt that many of these stories would be most profitable and engrossing seat work, a means of relaxation, which would not involve mischief making.

The weather was mild and delicate, with no sign of winter, and he meant to keep on somehow, afoot or aﬂoat, until he found that corn. When the shallop, a sloop-rigged craft of about twelve tons, could go no further, he could take the two Indians and two white companions and proceed by canoe. This he presently did, leaving the rest to guard the sailing vessel where it lay at anchor. A while after the canoe disappeared those who te mained thought they caught a glimpse Of shadowy figures ﬂitting in the same direction through the forest, though the woodlands were as silent as the creeping waters. Then they fancied that far away they heard shots and a cry, but nothing more occurred, nor did any message or Sign come from their leader. At last they gave up hope and went back to Jamestown.
