SKETCHES AND TALES ILLUSTRATIVE OF LIFE IN THE BACKWOODS OF NEW BRUNSWICK, NORTH AMERICA,
Gleaned From Actual Observation And Experience During A Residence Of Seven Years In That Interesting Colony.
BY MRS. F. BEAVAN.
Son of the Isles! talk not to me, Of the old world's pride and luxury!
Tho' gilded bower and fancy cot,
Grace not each wild concession lot;
Tho' rude our hut, and coarse our cheer,
The wealth the world can give is here."
1845.
