treatment in fiction of the Revolutionary period that we
have yet had."--_Buffalo Courier._
"A clean, wholesome story, full of romance and interesting
adventure.... Holds the interest alike by the thread of the
story and by the incidents.... A remarkably well-balanced
and absorbing novel."--_Milwaukee Journal._
_THE ONE WHO LOOKED ON._ By F. F. MONTRESOR, author of "Into the
