Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Brownings: A Tale of the Great Rebellion
If you have studied geography, you will re collect that the St. Mary's river forms a part of the boundary line between the States of Georgia and Florida. On the banks of this river, only a few miles from its entrance into the Atlantic Ocean, there stood not long ago a pretty rustic cottage, covered all over with scarlet woodbine and white Cherokee roses. It was not a solid, substantial-looking building, such as you see everywhere at the North, built for protection against frost and storm it looked more like a summer-house or arbor built for ornament rather than use. It was a sum mer-house, and its doors and windows were seldom closed; for although the children'of the St. Mary's count December, January, and February in the months of the year, they sel dom see there either frost or snow.
