      THE WHITE HERMIT:

       OR,

       The Unknown Foe.

      A ROMANCE OF THE LAKES AND WOODS.

      BY W. J. HAMILTON,

       Author of “The Giant Chief,” “The Silent Slayer,” etc.

      The interest which centers around the early years of settlement, when what is now the lovely region of Central New York was a wilderness of woods, streams, lakes, cataracts and rugged hills, is perennial; and in the fierce Iroquois, the dreaded Six Nations, the half savage white ranger, the colonial trooper, the resolute settler, the true forest women, the romance writer finds almost exhaustless material for the construction of his historic stories. Of the writers in this field of fiction Mr. Hamilton is well known as a master. He gives such pictures of forest life, such clear-cut portraits of forest men, as render his creations intensely interesting and attractive.

      This last work of his hand is one of impressive merit, and will greatly delight the lovers of forest romances.

       Table of Contents

      The wind was howling over the prairie, with a sharp, penetrating power, while a few feathery flashes eddying through the air, showed that although it was the season of spring, yet in this elevated region of the Far West, there was scarcely the first premonition of its breath.

      The night was closing in, and the vast peaks of the Black Hills, that
