Text Appearing Before Image:
an air of comfort andquiet pervading the whole scene; the old pioneer, true to theinstincts and habits of his youth and middle age, is not idle, as wecan see. He has yet an eye upon his affairs, and a hand in them;and could we look within doors, we should see the young wife thatbravely penetrated the forest with him; she who has lightenedhis burthens, and solaced him in such hours of despondency as willcome upon the stoutest hearts; transformed into the staid, agedmatron; yet looking to the affairs of the household; and blendingprecept with example, fitting her daughters for the vicissitudes,the trials, and the duties of life. Such has been pioneer life and progress upon the Holland Pur-chase. A fancy sketch it may be called; but yet it is a faithfulillustration of such realities as will be recognised by all who arefamiliar with the events that have attended the conversion of West-ern New York, from a wilderness, to a theatre of wealth, enter-prise, and prosperity, such as it is now.
