Night at sea and land in Lampman’s Youth a Companion
The poem echoes through fog and sea air with images of tide and wind. It speaks of a liminal space between sea and land and the scent of bayberry as Nell and the pale sun glow. Archibald Lampman voices hopeful energy and the joy of life in measured lines.

Reluctant Trail to Last Chance Ends With Singing River Legend
A frontier party recalls a midwinter retreat from Alder Gulch to Last Chance via Mullan Pass. After scarce provisions and warning Indians, a moonlit night battle is avoided and a “singing river” legend is cited as the warning that kept them safe. The tale closes with reflections on violence against women and a brief note on Captain Hline and the Duke of Manchester.
