A Tale of Love and Danger on Lake Ontario Shore
In Western New York a manor on Lake Ontario rises as civilization encroaches the Ridge. Sophia Carlton inspires two suitors George Wilson and James Hastings, whose jealousy turns deadly in a boat duel on the lake. Hastings dies, Wilson fights off drowning, drifts to shore, and survives with help from a fisherwoman as gossip spreads in the village Gazette.
