Miss Lyne's Novel.
Among Richmond's many literary peo-
pie, Miss Noncure Lyme is entitled to a
place in the first rank. The following
from the Baltimore Sun will interest
l.er many friends and acquainIances here.
Speaking or her recent novel, '.Thc
Critic" the Sun says:
This stirring novel of the Lone Star
State is from the pen OF a gifted South
crn author, Miss Aioncurc Lyme. OF Rich
mond. The novel Is well-drawn pic
ture Of frontier life In the days when
the SAlexicans and Texans disputed for
the possession OF what Is now the State
Of Texas Tho author has entered into
tho spirit of the time. and writing from
large fund OF information she has been
able to carry the reader back to those
romantic years when Mexico was striv-
ing to retain the fair land that lies be-
tween the Rio Grande and the Father OF
Waters. The characters OF this lively
story are full of life The men are brave
and strong. when not despicable williams,
and the women, as rule, are most low
able. The chapter describing the siese
OF the Alamo Is a strong piece Of de-
scriptive writing. II
