"Chad," the "little shepherd" did not know who he was nor whence
he came--he had just wandered from door to door since early
childhood, seeking shelter with kindly mountaineers who gladly
fathered and mothered this waif about whom there was such a
mystery--a charming waif, by the way, who could play the banjo
better than anyone else in the mountains.
A KNIGHT OF THE CUMBERLAND.
Illustrated by F. C. Yohn.
The scenes are laid along the waters of the Cumberland, the lair
of moonshiner and feudsman. The knight is a moonshiner's son, and
the heroine a beautiful girl perversely christened "The Blight."
Two impetuous young Southerners fall under the spell of "The
Blight's" charms and she learns what a large part jealousy and
pistols have in the love making of the mountaineers.
Included in this volume is "Hell fer-Sartain" and other stories,
some of Mr. Fox's most entertaining Cumberland valley narratives.
