Description
H. A. Cody wrote this 1917 tale of the Canadian woods, where a young man works near falling water, a mill, and a power scheme. The plot turns on sealed papers, a bid for work, a cabin, and a girl caught between rival claims. Chapters move from spring floods to a wild storm, a rescue, and a late clearing of doubt.
Cody blends work life, love, and a slow unmasking of who can be trusted. Falls, dams, and timber camps give the story its hard edge, while the sealed orders hold the key to who gains and who loses. Readers who like old north-woods tales will find brisk action, plain heroics, and a neat close.
