Synopsis

Excerpt from Some Hidden Sources of Fiction: A Paper Read Before the Historical Society of Dauphin County, Pennsylvania

The gifted author of The Seats of the Mighty has not spoiled the story of Major Robert Stobo. He has bor rowed the real hero's coat for his fictitious character, Captain Robert Moray, to masquerade in, and has at the same time put a new nap upon it. But how graceful and fair it would have been, if the author of this admirable story, in his Prefatory Note, along with the kind acknowledgments made to his Canadian friends, had mentioned Mr. Craig's little book and the British Museum Manuscript.
