Polly of the Pines
THE events of the story occur in the years 1775-82. Polly was an orphan living with her mother’s family, who were Scotch Highlanders, and for the most part intensely loyal to the Crown. Polly finds the glamor of royal adherence hard to resist, but her heart turns towards the patriots and she does much to aid and encourage them.
