Excerpt from By Order of the CompanyUpon the afternoon of which I now speak, in the midsummer Of the year of grace 1621, as I sat upon my doorstep, my long pipe between my teeth and my eyes upon the pallid stream below, my thoughts were busy with these matters, - so busy that I did not see a horse and rider emerge from the dimness Of the forest into the Cleared space before my palisade, nor knew, until his voice came up the bank, that my good friend, Master John Rolfe, was without and would speak to me.I went down to the gate, and, unbarring it, gave him my hand and led the horse within the inclosure.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
