Excerpt from The Story of the Foss River Ranch: A Tale of the Northwest
IT was a brilliant gathering - brilliant in every sense of the word. The hall was a great effort of the decorator's art; the people were faultlessly dressed; the faces were strong, handsome - fair or dark complexioned as the case might be; those present represented the wealth and fashion of the Western Canadian ranching world. Intellectually, too, there was no more fault to find here than is usual in a ballroom in the West End of London.
It was the annual ball of the Polo Club, and that was a social function Of the first water in the eyes of the Galford world.
