be sure, would never have acted with so much
daring Yet she could. upon occasion, display
qualities not wholly commonplace. She was
living AZ Saratoga when that spot was centre
Of military operations. Miss Humphreys de-
scribes as follows the one incident In Mrs
Schuyler's life which has individual signihcance:
Saratoga was in its summer luxurance 1t
perhaps never looked fairer 10 its mistress's
eve than now on the flats below lay the rich
fields of ripenlng grain. General Schuyler had
warned her not to allow anything Of value TO

ing torches right and left among the grain. and
the labor Of months was destroyed"
1t is not the fault OF Miss Humphreys that an
episode like this Is only once to be encountered
in the history of her subject, and accordingly
we will not blame her for having drawn the
portrait of an unsubstantial heroine in thin,
vague outlines. She had little enough to work
on. Her sketches Of the public events in which
the Schuylers shared however, might easily
have been executed with n hrmer and a more
vivid touch. AS it is, the value of the book lies
in its Industrious piecng together Of more or
less contemporary information relating to the
everyday characteristics Of Catherine Schuyler's
time This information she has handled to ex-
cellent effect. Life in this State outside Of
New York City was, as she represents it, an
affair less austere than in New England, less
luxurious and distinguished than in the South.
but 1t was homelike, it had notable elements Of
strength, and in its heavy handed way 1t was
picturesque Catherine Schuyler was represents
alive of It and will be remembered for that fact
IL not for any other.
