It Was The Autumn Of The Year, And The Dress Of The Canadian Woods At That Season, Forty Years Ago, Differed Little From The Gaudy Garbs Of Now. Near A Small Village Not Far From The Town Of Little York, I Choose As The Place For The Opening Of This True Story. The Maple, Of All The Trees In The Forest, Was The Only One So Far Frost-Smitten And Sun-Struck. The Harvests Had Been Gathered, And The Only Tenants Of The Fields Were Flocks Of Pigeons That Came To Feed Among The Stubble; For Many A Ripe Ear Fell From The Heads In The Tying Of The Sheaves; Many A Shower Of The Golden Grain Had Fallen As The Load, Drawn By Slow Oxen, Lurched And Swayed Along The Uneven Ground. Nestling In A Grove Of Primeval Pines That Sentinelled The Placid, Shining Waters Of The Don Stood A Low, Wide-Eaved Cottage. It Was Completely Clad In Ivy; And Upon The Eastern Side There Was A Dull Copper Tinge Through The Matted Masses Of The Virginia Creeper. Many Of The Earlier Flowers Had Faded; But The Pinks And The Poppies Were Still Rich In Blood; And The Sunflower Sturdily Held Up Its Yellow Face Like 'A Wizened Sorcerer Of Old,' As A Fair And Gifted Friend Of My Acquaintance Puts It. The Cottage And The Grounds About It Were The Property Of An English Gentleman Of Taste And Means. The Nearest Dwelling Had An Air Of Luxury, And Round About It Stretched Wide Areas Of Land From Which The Harvest Of Wheat And Oats Had Been Taken. Here And There In The Distance A Group Of Boys Might Be Seen With Their Fishing Rods In Their Hands; For At That Day The Don Stream Was Not Foul By The Drainage Of Fields, And Shrunken From The Downpour Of The Sun, And From The Loss Of Its Sheltering Forest. Trout And Often Salmon-Trout Went Into Its Quiet Retreats In The Face Of The Spring Freshets; And Many A Congregation Of Foam Bubbles Did It Hold Upon Its Breast To Screen The Greedy, Vigilant Speckled Trout.
