Book Description

Excerpt from Heroines of Canadian History The following sketches were originally pre pared, without any idea of publication, in the form of an address to the Lennox and Adding ton Historical Society, and it is at the request of that Society that I now consent that they appear in their present form. I regret that time and opportunity have not placed within my reach other records which must be in ex istence in different parts of our country. I feel confident that a careful search of all available documents bearing upon the early history of Canada would reveal many other striking illustrations of the heroic spirit of the early settlers.
