Author Description

Excerpt from Winter Studies and Summer Rambles in Canada, Vol. 2 of 2 The morning was most lovely and auspicious; blazing hot though, and scarce a breath of air; l and the magnificent machine, admirably ap pointed ih all respects, gaily painted and gilt, with ags waving, glided over the dazzling waters with an easy, stately motion. I had suffered so much at Detroit, that as it disappeared and melted away in the bright southern haze like a vision, I turned from it with a sense of relief, put the past out of my mind, and resigned myself to the present - like a wise woman - or wiser child.
