Description:Excerpt from A Daughter of the Highlanders The two months he had spent at the Turpentine Camp had been so squalid and dreary, with chill winds intruding through the cracks in the walls of his shanty; in February, snow and ice dissolving in an uncomfortable slush and the atmosphere reeking with a depressing dampness; in March, sharp Winds shrieking and blustering and rasping his nerves, ren dered life very unpleasant, generally, at the bare, make-shift camp. He had grown homesick, restless and disillusioned with the ambition to make money at any cost to personal inclination or comfort. It had been so different to any other experience of his well-bred life! Why, in the mid-winter, that then seemed forlornly distant, he had danced and dined in a dress suit, in the company of girls in evening dress; and he loved society and dancing upon waxed ﬂoors to the passionate music of skilled orchestras.
