This is a bright, cheery tale with the 

 scenes laid in Indiana. The story is told 

 by Little Sister, the youngest member of

 much with childish doings as with tho love 

 affairs of older members of the family.

 older brother whom Little Sister adores, 

 and the Princess, an English girl who has 

 come to live in the neighborhood and about 

 whose family there hangs a mystery. 

 There is a wedding midway in the book 

 and a double wedding at the close.

 'Medicine Woods," and the Harvester's whole being realizes that 

 this is the highest point of life which has come to him then? begins 

 a romance of the rarest idyllic quality.
