Burns has written hundreds of better things; but henceforth, for centuries, that maiden has free admittance into the dream-land of Beautiful Women, and she and all her race are famous! I should like to know the present head of the family, and ascertain what value, if any, they put upon the celebrity thus won. We passed through Catrine, known hereabouts as "the clean village of Scotland."
He backed off down the road, followed by Redstock, rifles cocked. "An' ye'll bear me out," he shouted, "that there's them wha' hear these words now shall meet their weirds ere a hunter's moon is wasted!" He laughed his insane laugh and, throwing his rifle over his shoulder, halted, facing us. "Hae ye no heard o' Catrine Montour?" he jeered. "She'll come in the night, Andrew Bowman!
It might be for years, and it might be for ever, he could not tell; but he could not tear himself away without telling the object of his affections how dear she was to him, and to whisper a hope that he might yet return one day to claim her as his bride; and Catharine, weeping and blushing, promised to wait for that happy day, or to remain single for his sake, while Pierre promised to watch over his friend's interests and keep alive Catharine's love; for, said he, artlessly, "la belle Catrine is pretty and lively, and may have many suitors before she sees you again, mon ami."
"And what for no?" said she, "if you would let me!" "I wish you were so, indeed!" I cried. "I would be a fine man if I had such a sister. But the rub is that you are Catriona Drummond." "And now I will be Catrine Balfour," she said. "And who is to ken? They are all strange folk here." "If you think that it would do," says I. "I own it troubles me.
"What did Timothy Murphy observe?" asked Schuyler, watching Mount intently. "Murphy brings news of their witch, Catrine Montour, sir. He. chased her till he dropped like all the rest of us but she went on and on a running, hop! tap! hop! tap! and patter, patter, patter! It stirs my hair to think on her, and I'm no coward, sir. We call her 'The Toad-woman."
He was 'roosed' by Craigen-Gillan; Dugald Stewart, the celebrated metaphysician, and one of the best-known names in the learned and literary circles of Edinburgh, who happened to be spending his vacation at Catrine, not very far from Mossgiel, invited the poet to dine with him, and on that occasion he 'dinnered wi' a laird' Lord Daer. Then came the appreciative letter from Dr.
"Here, through these viewless shades, his sway begins, as this stream begins, whose source is darkness and whose current moves slowly like thick blood. Here is the haunt of witch and sorcerer of the hag Catrine, of the Wyoming Fiend, of Amochol of Amochol! Here run the Andastes, hunting through the dusk like wolves and foxes running, smelling, listening, ever hunting.
Then the Mohawks raised their war-yelp and struck the post; and the Cayugas answered with a terrible cry, striking the post, and calling out for the Next Youngest Son meaning the Tuscaroras to draw their hatchets. "Have the Seminoles made women of you?" screamed Catrine Montour, menacing the sachems of the Tuscaroras with clinched fists.
"Dorothy, who is this Catrine Montour?" I asked. "A woman, cousin; a terrible hag who runs through the woods, and none dare stop her." "A real hag? You mean a ghost?" "No, no; a real hag, with black locks hanging, and long arms that could choke an ox." "Why does she run through the woods?" I asked, amused. "Why? Who knows? She is always seen running." "Where does she run to?" "I don't know.
