son, has taken a strictly American theme
for treatment. and the atmosphere OF the
poem is American, though not OF the
present day. The scenes are laid along
Lake George and Lake Champlain during
the historical period Immediately preced-
ing the war OF the revolution, and the story
is one of frontier life during a very un-
settled period In which patriots tories IN
dians. woodsmen and lovers figure The
meter is modelled after that Uf Scotts

which the author has evidently been an
admiring reader. Some OF the descriptive
passages are fairly good. and. barring an
occasional false rhyme, the lines run
smoothly and sean well. The story has
some interest and is told r well as could
