Excerpt: ...as she came close to me, "unless-unless she will marry him." "Ah a tea-party," said his Lordship, coming toward us. "Pardon the interruption. I have promised to return these men at nine. It is now ten minutes of the hour. Ladies, I wish you all a very good night." He bowed politely. They pressed my hand, leaving me with such anxiety in their faces that I felt it more than my own peril, Louison gave me a tender look out of her fine eyes, and the thought of it was a light to my soul in many an hour of darkness. She had seemed so cool, so nonchalant, I was surprised to feel the tremor in her nerves. I knew not words to say when Louise took my hand. "Forgive me-good-by " said she. It was a faint whisper out of trembling lips. I could see her soul in her face then. It was lighted with trouble and a nobler beauty than I had ever seen. It was full of tenderness and pity and things I could not understand. "Have courage " I called as they went away. I was never in such a fierce temper as when, after they had gone above-stairs, I could hear one of them weeping. Dri stood quietly beside me, his arms folded. "Whut ye goin t dew with them air women?" he asked, turning to the young man. "I beg you will give me time to consider," said his Lordship, calmly, as he lighted a cigarette. There was a quick move in the big tower of bone and muscle beside me. I laid hold of Dris elbow and bade him stop, or I fear his Lordships drawing-room, his Lordship, and ourselves would presently have had some need of repair. Four guards who seemed to be waiting in the hall entered hurriedly, the shackles in hand. "No haste," said his Lordship, more pleasantly than ever. "Stand by and wait my orders." "D ye wan t know whut I think o you?" said Dri, looking down at him, his eyes opening wide, his brow wrinkling into long furrows. "I make a condition," said his Lordship: "do not flatter me." "Yer jest a low-lived, misable, wuthless pup," said Dri, "Away with them " said...… (mais)

Preface
This is the tale of the adventurous and rugged pioneers, who, unconquered by other foes, were ever at war with the ancient wilderness, pushing the northern frontier of the white man farther and farther to the west. Early in the last century they had striped the wild waste of timber with roadways from Lake Champlain to Lake Ontario, and spotted it with sown acres wide and fair; and still, as they swung their axes with the mighty vigor of great arms, the forest fell before them.
Introduction
From a letter of Captain Darius Hawkins, USA., introducing Ramon Bell to the Comte de Chaumont: -

"My dear Count: I commend to your kind offices my young friend Ramon Bell, the son of Captain Bell, a cavalry officer who long ago warmed his sword in the blood of the British on many a battle-field.
Chapter 1
A poet may be a good companion, but, so far as I know, he is ever the worst of fathers. Even as grandfather he is too near, for one poet can lay down a streak of poverty over three generations.
