The Master
of Clta OS
By IRVING BACHELLER
Opening his thrill,
ing historical story,
"T he Master of
Chaos," in July, 1775,
Mr. Bacheller's nar
rative is woven
around the band of
patriots who made our notion,
but the lovo interest is prin
cipally concerned with the ad
ventures and misadventures of
one Colin Cabot, a young man
recently graduated from Harvard,
the son of a small merchant, and
ardent liberty-loving youngster,
of course devoted to tho Con
tinental cause. As might ho ex
pected, he is in love with a beau
tiful and charming girl, Patience
Faycrweathcr, whoso wealthy and
well-born parents aro extreme
Loyalists. Patience herself is
converted to the Continental
catiso by her lovo for Colin, and
does not protect when ho es
capes from Boston, then in the
hands of tho British, and goes to
join Washington's army of self*
sacrificing citizens at Cambridge.
There he soon wins tho affection*
ate regard of hoth the Com*
niandor-in-Chief and Lady Wash
ington. He sees much fighting, at
tends tho Continental congress
when independence is declared,
takes part in the Rattle of wen
ton, nnd in the defeat of Bnr
goyne. Meanwhile Patience has
various troubles of her own, the
depletion of which wfll iurely
hold the unflagging Interest of
our feminine reader*.
Rut like her lover, the girl has
won the affection and good-will
of Lady Washington, who does a
great deal toward Bringing the
romance to its proper conclusion.
