Présentation de l'éditeur

The scene of the following story is laid in Virginia, during the summer and fall of 1781, the last year of the American Revolution. The historical events narrated are in the main true, though some slight liberties have been taken for the convenience of the narrative. Stratford House, the home of the heroine, is the old family mansion that once stood on the southern bank of the Potomac, in Westmoreland county, Va., supposed to have been built by Richard Lee, sometime during the sixteenth century. It was destroyed by A re early in the eighteenth century; but soon rebuilt, and now stands, a stately manor house of the olden time. In conclusion, the author submits this little work, hoping that its demerits may be overlooked, and that it may receive some slight portion of that kindly favor so grateful to the heart of every writer.
