1893. Illustrated. Musick's early writings were sometimes written
under pseudonyms, Benjamin Broadaxe (or Broadax), Ebenezer Slypole,
and Don Jenardo, among others. He was admitted to the bar and
practiced law until 1882 when he began to devote full-time to his
writing. Pocahontas is one of the volumes in his 12 volume set of
Columbian Historical Novels. In Chapter VII he writes: There is no
story more dear to the heart of the American than that of
Pocahontas. It has been so often narrated that it has become a
nursery legend, yet in all history none more dramatic and touching
can be found. It has moved hearts since it was first told to
civilized ears. Each succeeding generation reads anew the tender
tale, narrated, perhaps, by some new author, who, in song or story,
makes of Smith and his child rescuer the incarnation of his own
fancy. It has been told in romance, sung to the sweet notes of the
harp, performed on the stage, and gravely narrated by the
historian, yet wherever heard, however told, it loses nothing; the
story itself is always the same, and never fails to move the heart
of the listener. See other titles by this author available from
Kessinger Publishing.
The quarter-master's favorite dog, which was as fat as the pig,
suddenly disappeared the day before the feast, and Terrence had a
search instituted for him without avail, and gave it out as his
opinion that the dog had fallen overboard. On the same day the
officers feasted on roast pig, Terrence's mess had roast pig. The
officers declared that their roast pig was very tender, but that
the flavor was strong and peculiar! The ship's surgeon afterward
said he never saw the bones of a pig so resemble the bones of a
dog. There had been but one pig aboard, and had it been known that
Terrence dined on roast pig also, there might have been some grave
suspicions.
