Book excerpt: Excerpt from Over the Border a Romance The end of October had been more than usually fine, and now the beginning of November was following the good example set by its predecessor. In the Home Park, the only part of the extensive grounds surrounding Hampton Court Palace that was well wooded, the leaves had not entirely left the branches, and the turf beneath was green and firm, as yet unsodden by autumnal rain. Along one of the forest aisles there walked a distinguished party, proceeding slowly, for the pace was set by a disease-stricken man whose progress was of painful deliberation. He was tall and thin; his body was prematurely bent, though accustomed to be straight enough, if one might judge by the masterful brow, now pallid with illness, or by the glance of the piercing eye untamed even by deadly malady.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Land of Romance: The Border, Its History and Legend Three crests against the saffron sky, Beyond the purple plain, The kind remembered melody Of Tweed once more again. Wan water from the Border hills, Dear voice from the old years, Thy distant music lulls and stills, And moves to quiet tears. Like a loved ghost thy fabled flood Fleets through the dusky land; Where Scott, come home to die, has stood, My feet returning stand. A mist of memory broods and floats, The Border waters flow; The air is full of ballad notes, Borne out of long ago. Old songs that sung themselves to me, Sweet through a boy's day-dream, While trout below the blossom'd tree Plashed in the golden stream. Twilight, and Tweed, and Eildon Hill, Fair and too fair you be; You tell me that the voice is still That should have welcomed me. Andrew Lang.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Over the Border We've seen the waking smile of morn On old Edina's crown, And o'er Loch Awe, where you were born, We've watched the sun go down, my dear, We've watched the sun go down. We've known of youth its golden dream, And seen it fade and die, And now we watch one less'ning gleam In life's cold sunset sky, my dear, In life's cold sunset sky. That gleam immortal memories leave On scenes that once were bright, And bid our spirits not to grieve At coming of the night, my dear, At coming of the night. For whichsoever way we wend And whatsoe'er our mark. Life's journeys find one common end, And light will follow dark, my dear, And light will follow dark! 'Tis fated all! So let it go - The Present, like the Past! The way was hard, but well we know There will be rest at last, my dear, There will be rest at last.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Desert Gold a Romance of the Border Then a sharp clink Of metal on stone and soft pads of hoofs in sand prompted Cameron to reach for his gun, and to move out Of the light of waning campfire. He was somewhere along the wild border line between So nora and Arizona; and the prospector who dared the heat and barrenness Of that region risked other dangers some times as menacing. Figures darker than the gloom approached and took shape, and in the light turned out to be those Of a white man and a heavily packed burro.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Beyond the Border And they soon got hold of it, for the blacksmith was so pleased with his wit he did not care to keep it to himself, but wanted to take the credit. And his neighbours came out laughing as if their sides would split, till the Streets re-echoed with shouts of amuse ment. Oh, that joke was certainly very good indeed! And the butcher told it to the baker, and the baker to the grocer, and the grocer to somebody else, and somebody else to the other person, and they all told their customers - I mean, of course, those who had customers - and everybody laughed again at each repetition of the joke till they felt so dry in the mouth that they had to go to the inn to refresh, where they drank cups of liquor, and told the inn keeper all about it between the draughts. And the innkeeper laughed, and his wife laughed, and the lass laughed, and they had to hold on to each other, so faint were they with laughter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assertion The end of October had been more than usually fine, and now the beginning of November was following the good example set by its predecessor. In the Home Park, the only part of the extensive grounds surrounding Hampton Court Palace that was well wooded, the leaves had not entirely left the branches, and the turf beneath was green and firm, as yet unsodden by autumnal rain. Along one of the forest aisles there walked a distinguished party, proceeding slowly, for the pace was set by a disease-stricken man whose progress was of painful deliberation. He was tall and thin; his body was prematurely bent, though accustomed to be straight enough, if one might judge by the masterful brow, now pallid with illness, or by the glance of the piercing eye untamed even by deadly malady. That he was not long for this earth, if Nature had her way, a scrutinizer of that handsome, powerful face might have guessed; yet he was singled out for destruction even before his short allotted time, for at that moment his enemies, hedged in secrecy behind locked doors, were anxiously planning his ruin. They were wise in their privacy, for, had a whisper of their intentions gone abroad, the Earl of Strafford would have struck first and struck hard, as, indeed, he intended to do in any case. Thomas Wentworth, Earl of Strafford, was accompanied by an imposing train. On either side of him, accommodating their slow steps to his, were some of the highest in the land, who waited on his words and accorded him a deference more obsequious than that with which they might have distinguished the King himself; for all knew that this shattered frame was more to be dreaded than the most stalwart personage who that day trod English soil. Behind this noble circle followed a numerous band of attendants, alert for beck or call, each having place according to his degree. A huntsman was surrounded by dogs kept in thrall by fear of the whip. Falconers with hooded hawks attested a favorite sport of the Earl, who loved to have the birds near him even though he made no trial of their flight. And here he walked the grounds of the King as if he owned them; as though he were permanent master instead of transient guest. Here he rested for the moment, hoping to recover some remnant of health by the placid Thames, after his troublous journey from Ireland, which turbulent country lay numb under his strong hand, soon to be vocal enough when the hounds were upon him. No echo of London's clamour came to this green paradise. He knew the mob was crying out against him, as in truth the whole country cried; but he heeded not the howl, despising his opponents. Better for him had he been more wary or more conciliatory. Among those now in his company was young De Courcy, one of the numerous band of Frenchmen smilingly received at Court because the consort of Charles had a predilection for her countrymen, -a preference unshared by any save her husband. The French contingent thought little of the scowls of the English so long as those in authority smiled on them and the smile brought profit. They were regarded as titled mercenaries; spies probably, anxious to feather their own nests at the expense of the Treasury;

Dear Mother: I am writing, I know a trifle late, But I have been so busy, with the Soldiers' daily grind That I've neglected writing, but I know you will not mind, When you've read what I am writing, you'll feel a whole lot better, And I promise that hereafter, I will write a daily letter. Tell Sis she wouldn't know me, since I left our little town, For the sun has surely baked me, a most gorgeous golden brown, Tell Dad if he could see me, he would never cuss me more, For oversleeping mornings, or neglecting any chore.
