The Girl from Glengarry

Excerpt-Yes, he brought mother here from Glengarry when I was a wee girl, so I am a Glengarry girl and very proud of it. Later he cleared the pine forest off--built the old mill--and later the factory.By Jove! How splendid! How magnificently splendid! And this was all forest?Yes, all those hills across there--and on this side too. They floated the smaller logs down the river to the mill in booms.Booms? I'm a poor ignorant city bum!Yes, the smaller logs they just enclosed in logs bound together with chains and floated them to the old mill. But the great logs were made into square lumber and there were built into great rafts and floated down to Quebec for the European market. Britain used to get her ship's timber from here.
