Excerpt from The Howdie and Other Tales
Mr Galt is a man of genius, and some Of his happiest produc tions will live in the literature of his country. His humour is rich, rare, and racy, and peculiar withal, entitling him to the character Of originality - a charm that never fadeth away; he has great power in the humble, the homely-pathetic, and he is conversant, not only with many modes and manners of life, but with much of its hidden and more mysterious spirit.
