Old Province Tales; Upper Canada. --

IN the Old Dominion, the Province of Virginia,2 in the latter part of the eighteenth century, lived René La Force with his wife and family. He was happy in his family; his wife Agnes was a true helpmeet, and his children were obedient and helpful. While many of his neighbours were strong Continentalists and ardently de sired full Home Rule for the Colonies, La Force was loyal to his king and his flag. Never hesitating to express his views, he became most unpopular in the community; he was unjustly treated heavy fines were laid upon him, and he was subjected to many and in creasing annoyances.
