Two Women Raid British Couriers in Revolutionary Tale

In Ninety-sixth District a daring act by two women during the Augusta and Cam bridge siege inspires pride. Disguised in their husbands’ clothes, they seized despatches from British officers, delivering them to General Green, then outwitting parolees at a neighbor’s house. Also recounted is a funny Yankee tale from Chesnut Hill about borrowing a hen and eggs to hatch a free dozen chickens.

Winter Spirit and its Visitor

An aged lodge dweller sits by a dying fire as winter grips the land. A young visitor arrives bearing a power wreath and a tale of adventures, sparking a contest of elements. The old Winter Spirit reveals himself, then melts away as Spring, represented by Scewan, ascends and the scene ends with the redress of the landscape and a single pink-bordered flower awarded.
