Excerpt from The Foresters: An American Tale
There was among the appendages to John's eftate, a pretty large traét of land, which had been neglccled by his ancefiors, and which he nevericared much about, ex cepting that now and then fome of his family went thither a hunting, and brought home venifon and furs. Indeed this was, as far as I can find, the belt pretence that John had to call the land his; for he had no legal title to it. It was then a very woody country,.in fome parts rocky and hil ly, in other parts level; well watered with brooks and ponds, and the whole of it bor dered on a large lake, in which were plenty of hib, fome of which were often ferved up at John's table, on fall days.
