Excerpt: ...whites. Yonder was the spot where certain of those bold pioneers and fighters, the Green Mountain Boys, embarked under their famous leaders, Allen and Warner, upon an expedition that historians will never cease to write of.

We have no saloons; we seldom have an arrest--" "Oh, I never thought of those things," admitted Janice. "There isn't really anything for young people to do in the Poketown Church, I know.
