Kate Carnegie (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Kate Carnegie Junction, with a command of the letter r, which is the bequest of an unconquerable past, and inspires one with the hope of some day hearing a freeborn Scot say Auchterarder. The train runs over bleak moorlands with black peat holes, through alluvial straths yielding their last pickle of corn, between iron furnaces blazing strangely in the morning light, at the foot of historical castles built on rocks that rise out of the fertile plains, and then, after a space of sudden darkness, any man with a soul counts the ten hours' dust and heat but a slight price for the sight of the Scottish Rhine ¿owing deep, clear, and swift by the foot of its wooded hills, and the Fair City in the heart of her meadows.
