Excerpt from Old Province Tales Upper Canada In the Old Dominion, the Province of Virginia, in the latter part of the eighteenth century, lived Rene La Force with his wife and family. He was happy in his family; his wife Agnes was a true helpmeet, and his children were obedient and helpful. While many of his neighbours were strong Continentalists and ardently desired full Home Rule for the Colonies, La Force was loyal to his king and his flag. Never hesitating to express his views, he became most unpopular in the community; he was unjustly treated; heavy fines were laid upon him, and he was subjected to many and increasing annoyances.

Excerpt from Canadian Fairy Tales Canada-by river and lake and ocean Where sailors and fishermen still watch the stars in forest clearings Where lumbermen yet retain some remnant of the old vanished voyageur life and where Indians still barter for their furs; in remote country places Where women spin while they speak with reverence of their fathers' days. The skeleton of each story has been left for the most part unchanged, although the language naturally differs somewhat from that of the story-tellers from Whose lips the writer heard them.

Excerpt from Stories of the Maple Land: Tales of the Early Days of Canada for Children The Maple-tree and the Horse-chestnut grew close together, just by the side of the big school. They both were very fond of the children, and might often have been seen with their branches twined together peeping through the windows. This morning the Maple seemed in high spirits. Indeed she had just been given a new spring dress, and very proud she was of it, too. No wonder either, for it was such a dainty, fresh shade of green, and her branches looked so grace fill with their weight of baby leaves, from which the sun had kissed away the last stubborn twist and wrinkle. The Horse-chestnut felt rather dull. She was not dressed yet, and was mil of sorts because the sun had not given her enough help.

Excerpt from Canadian Stories I see no shadows, saith the sun Yet he casts them every one. All the years that our family lived in Montreal, more than half my lifetime, the great church of Notre Dame seemed an irresistible magnet when ever we Chose a home. When one exigency or another, the need of more room, or escape from an intrusive factory, obliged us to find new quarters, we never went far; the new home, like the old, was sure to stand almost beneath the twin stark towers of Notre Dame, within sound of its oft-recur ring chimes. To-day, as the traveler approaches Montreal from the river, the old Norman church still looms high in the landscape. Fifty years ago, before any lofty structure stood its neighbor, N otre Dame dominated the city as St. Peter's, at this hour, as with a scepter, lifts itself above Rome.
