Wild Western Scenes: A Narrative of Adventures in the Western Wilderness, Wherein the Exploits of Daniel Boone, the Great American Pioneer are Particularly Described

Name: Wild Western Scenes: A Narrative of Adventures in the Western Wilderness, Wherein the Exploits of Daniel Boone, the Great American Pioneer are Particularly Described
Author: Jones, J. B. (John Beauchamp)

Jones, J. B. (John Beauchamp)

Boone, Daniel, 1734-1820 -- Fiction; Western stories; Wilderness areas -- Fiction

And now all was ready to push out into the current. All were on board.
Boone bid them an affectionate adieu in silence—in silence, but in
tears. The cable was loosened, and the boat was wafted down on its
journey eastward. William and La-u-na sat upon the deck, and gazed at
the receding shore, rendered dear by hallowed recollections. Glenn and
Mary stood at the prow, and as they marked the fleeting waters, their
thoughts dwelt on the happy future. Roughgrove was praying. Joe was
caressing the pony. Sneak was counting his muskrat skins. And thus we
must bid them adieu.

THE END.

dream.—_Printer’s Devil_.
