Excerpt from The Hawks of Hawk-Hollow, Vol. 1 of 2: A Tradition of PennsylvaniaHear me, but don't believe me, after you have heard - says Calderon, the Spanish dramatic poet, with a droll spirit of honesty, only equalled by the English Burton, who concludes the tale of the Prebend, in his Anatomy of Melancholy, by ex claiming, You have heard my tale; but, alas! It is but a tale, - a mere fiction: 'twas never so, never like to be, - and so let it rest. We might imitate the frankness of these ancient Worthies, in regard to the degree of credit which should be ao corded to our tradition; but it would be at an ex pense of greater space and tediousness than we care to bestow upon the reader.
