Excerpt from George Allen: The Only SonCome, George, the sleigh is ready, said the smiling young man, as he tied the impatient horse to the great elm, and turned to meet the beautiful child who sprang from his mother's side into the arms of his father, who placed him in the sleigh, and after assisting his bonny wife to seat herself, and carefully wrapping the buf falo skins round them, took his station, and, giving the reins to his horse, turned toward the river, which was now a smooth sheet of ice, and so thick that, as the sleigh flew rapidly over it, the horse's feet sounded as though he trod on a solid rock.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
