interest others equally.” 
Brooklyn Daily Eagle—‘One welcomes most cor- 
dially the appearance of a Fenimore Cooper fron- 
tier story which is told without melodramatic 
exaggeration, without tiresome prolixity (Cooper’s 
fatal fault), and with a just and well poised ad- 
mixture of history and romance.”’ 
Zanesville Daily Courier—‘‘Every school girl knows 
and loves Betty Zane, the heroine of the be- 
leaguered garrison at Wheeling, long, long ago. 
Dr. Grey has portrayed the real Betty Zane; and
