  • The Rangers:The Tory's Daughter A Tale Illustrative of the Revolutionary History of Vermont and the Northern Campaign of 1777

    de Daniel Pierce Thompson ...
    Towards night, on the twelfth of March, 1775, a richly-equipped double sleigh, filled with a goodly company of well-dressed persons of the different sexes, was seen descending from the eastern side of the Green Mountains, along what may now be considered the principal thoroughfare leading from the upper navigable portions of the Hudson to those of the Connecticut River. The progress of the ... Leer más

  • Ethan Allen: The Robin Hood of Vermont and The Green Mountain Boys: A Historical Tale of the Early Settlement of Vermont

    de Henry Foljambe Hall & Daniel Pierce Thompson ...
    Ethan Allen is the Robin Hood of Vermont. As Robin Hood's life was an Anglo-Saxon protest against Norman despotism, so Allen's life was a protest against domestic robbery and foreign tyranny. As Sherwood Forest was the rendezvous of the gallant and chivalrous Robin Hood, so the Green Mountains were the home of the dauntless and high-minded Ethan Allen. As Robin Hood, in Scott's "Ivanhoe," so does ... Leer más

  • The Green Mountain Boys: A Historical Tale of the Early Settlement of Vermont

    de Daniel Pierce Thompson ...
    Those who have wandered along the banks of the Otter Creek, in search of the beautiful and picturesque, may have extended their rambles, perhaps, to lake Dunmore, which lies embosomed among the hills a few miles to the eastward of that quiet stream. If so, their taste for natural scenery has doubtless been amply gratified: for there is no spot in the whole range of the Green Mountains that ... Leer más

  • Gaut Gurley: The Trappers of Umbagog A Tale of Border Life

    de Daniel Pierce Thompson ...
    God made the country and man made the town. So wrote the charming Cowper, giving us to understand, by the drift of the context, that he intended the remark as having a moral as well as a physical application; since, as he there intimates, in "gain-devoted cities," whither naturally flow "the dregs and feculence of every land," and where "foul example in most minds begets its likeness," the vices ...

  • Lucy Hosmer: The Guardian and Ghost A Tale of Avarice and Crime Defeated

    de Daniel Pierce Thompson ...
    The summer’s sun was throwing his parting beams over the circular range of high, detached hills that enclosed a small village situated near the mouth of one of the Green Mountain tributaries of the Connecticut river. Long, wavy lines of thin, blue smoke becoming visible in the absence of the sun, lay stretched, with their delicate aerial tracery, from hill to hill above the shaded hamlet, beneath ... Leer más

  • The Adventures of Timothy Peacock, Esquire: Freemasonry Practically Illustrated

    de Daniel Pierce Thompson ...
    Our Hero, the present Thrice Illustrious TIMOTHY PEACOCK, Esquire, was born in a small village in the interior of Rhode Island. His father and mother were deserters from a British fleet.

  • The Shaker Lovers and Other Tales

    de Daniel Pierce Thompson ...
    I was once, upon a warm summer afternoon, journeying on horseback in that wild and picturesque tract of country, in New Hampshire, which borders on the upper portion of the mountainborn Merrimac, when a dark thunder cloud, that had been gathering, unperceived by me, in the distance, rose up suddenly from behind the screening hills, apprising me at once, by its threatening aspect, and the rapidity ...

  • Locke Amsden: The Schoolmaster

    de Daniel Pierce Thompson ...
    Our story, contrary perhaps to fashionable precedent, opens at a common farm-house, situated on one of the principal roads leading through the interior of the northerly portion of the Union. It was near the middle of the day, in that part of the spring season when the rough and chill features of winter are becoming so equally blended with the soft and mild ones of summer upon the face of nature, ...
