Rev. Robert Murray, Editor of the _Presbyterian Witness_ (Halifax, N.S.), writes the author: "Accept of my thanks for your most readable and refreshing book. I am delighted with it. Brought up among the Highlanders I appreciate some of the chapters more than others; but the book as a whole is excellent. I only wish it were ampler in its details." "As the title indicates, the aim of the writer is to give to the people of to-day an idea of how the settlers lived in their homes, as apart from their struggles as a community for political and commercial rights. In this he has been eminently successful, and a valuable picture of the social life as it then was has been preserved for future generations."--_Winnipeg Tribune._ WILLIAM BRIGGS, Publisher 29-33 Richmond Street West, TORONTO, ONT. LEAVES FROM Manitoba MY LIFE IN THE PRAIRIE Memories PROVINCE. By REV. GEORGE YOUNG, D.D., _Founder of Methodist Missions in the "Red River Settlement."_ WITH INTRODUCTION BY REV. ALEXANDER SUTHERLAND, D.D., _General Secretary of the Missionary Society of the Methodist Church._ In Extra English Cloth Boards, with 15 Portraits and Illustrations. PRICE, $1.00, POSTPAID. Personal and Press Comments "The book is of fascinating interest, and gives authentic information not elsewhere to be obtained on the stirring events of the early history of Manitoba. It is handsomely printed, with numerous portraits and other engravings."--_Onward._ "The reader will readily perceive that one who has lived so long in such varied scenes as have fallen to the lot of Dr. Young must have witnessed many things worthy of record, and will rejoice with the present writer that the venerable author, notwithstanding his characteristic modesty, was prevailed upon, after much entreaty, to send forth this charming volume."--_Mail and Empire._ "An interesting chapter is devoted to the Fenian Raid of 1871; another to Dr. Lachlan Taylor's tour among the missions in the 'Great Lone Land,' taken from Dr. Taylor's own report and journal; and still another chapter recounts the history of the early educational movement in the West. On the whole the book is a very interesting and indeed valuable one, not only to members of the author's Church, but also to the general reader."--_Ottawa Citizen._ S. R. PARSONS, Esq., writes:
