One hundred years ago, the hunter
who ranged the hills and forests OF New
England, fought against other enemies
than brown bears aud the panthcls. The
husbandman, as lie toilcd in the plain, or

the forest solitudes, and there the high.

gathered together the broken strength ol
the Norridgewock, and bnilt up in thu
