Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Our Ancestors: Miners-Averys-Strongs-Morgans
A beautiful morning in mid-winter, I am seated in the dining room of my father's house, my dear New England home.
No thought comes to me of the dead and gone ages, or of the time when the beautiful hill upon which this home is built was traversed by the red man in his wild freedom, or of the time when a worse foe stained these very grounds with the blood of our ancestors. No; 1 was not looking backwards, but simply en joying the present, the Christmastide of 1898.
