In the parlor of the Congregations

| Abbey made from a photograph TAX
en- by Mr.. Metcalf on one of his
| English trips. Photographs from
Mr.. Metcalf's camera are in the
hands Of an artist, and from them
are being made Illustrations suitable
to the action Of the story. The scene
of the novel is in Lincolnshire, Mr..
Metcalf's native country, near his
birth place. The story opens in the
ancient city of Lincoln and closes in
the same place.
That gentleman of Mr.. Metcalf's
profundity, his ripe scholarship and
unusual ability as teacher, is thor
oughly well equipped to write a
book goes without saying among all
who realize his particular accomp-
lishments in these lines. That his
new book will be largely and eager
ly read by his friends in this city
and those in his former parstorates is
also evident. Those who are familiar
with his work as word painter in
the pulpit will no doubt find this
very necessary and most interesting
quality to the making of good
book much in evidence throughout
its pages.
Speaking of the pen it may be
we'll enough in this connection to
let the readers of the Freeman Trib-
une know that Mr.. Metcalf is re-
sponsible and deserves the credit for
the most excellent accounts Of the
Chautauqua which have appeared in
these columns during the past week.
He also did this work for us last
year and the publishers of the paper
feel they are to be congratulated
upon the fact that these writeups
were in such able hands. All those
who have followed these splendid
Chautauqua articles will agree with
the Freeman-Tribune that Mr.. Met
calf has signal ability in this line.
A better description in detail of ev-
erything which happened on the To-
cal Chautauqua platform during the
entire session of the assembly would
be hard to conceive of and these ar
ticles show clearly that Mr.. Metcalf
is thoroughly at home in the work
of an editor or reporter for the
press.

the time of Richard l, of Chaucer
and Wyclif, of Wat Tyler and the
peasant revolt, and these characters
appear in the story. 1t is story OF
Thornton Abbey, the ruins of which
are visited by thousands of tourists
every year. They are located near
the home of the author.
Mr.. Ms novel is built about a very
interesting tradition of the Abbey.
Rumor was persistent that one of
the old Abbots of the monastery
fell in love with maid of the near
by village. To save the Abbot body
and soul, the monks bricked him in
his cell and left him till eternity
should reveal his fate. Two or three
generations ago a wall in the ruins
became dangerous. To forestall
trouble the present owners of the
ruins had the wall taken down.
Workmen found a chamber in the
wall. In the chamber was a table,
a chair, an ever which had once
contained water, but was now chok-
ed with dust, and on the floor lay
sprawled the skeleton Of man.
This interesting tradition lies at the
heart of the plot of The Green Dew

who have seen the manuscript of
The Green Devil are saying that it
has in it more than average prom
Use. The book was written before
Mr.. Metcalf came to Webster City,
but 1t will bear the date line Of
Webster City, and If it proves to be
a good seller it will advertise the

The Green Devil is story of the
peasant, revolt under the famous
Wat Tyler. It's plot embraces love
and war. Good monks and bad, a
witch and a dwarf, knights and
squires, the occupants of Manor
House and the dwellers in the near
by monastery, all figure in the story.
The book belongs to the class of
novels known as historical roman
ces.
We have seen specimen pages of
Mr.. Metcalf's book. 1t will be a
good page to read, and the book will
be put up in attractive and popu-
lar style. The published price will
