l ruoss PINE GLAD HILLS or HORTON by c. c. Churchill The pine clad hills of Horton, Their grandeur is sublime, They have stood the test of ages, And they've scoffed at Father Time. Those pine clad hills of Morton Their grandeur is the same As when the Red Man roamed the wilds: In search of food and game. They saw the Red Man come and gg His wigwams disappean And then they saw that noble race The Canadian Pioneer. George Morton, there in rapture gazed, When his eye beheld the scene-- The glories of those pine clad hills Would dazzle Sheba's Queen. There he, in visions, often saw A village nestled there, In the shadows of those pine clad hills By Whitefish River fair. And Morton saw his dreams come true, As the years rolled swiftly by, f 5, _ A village grew and nestled there r 1' ' * :z an“, Beneath his watchful eye. Now, Morton's gone with all his And the Pine Clad Hills are there. They prove that man with all his hopes Must yield them in despair. Alas for them, they came and went Like bubbles on the wave; Their hopes and aims in life were left To wither at the grave. For, Oh, the changing streams of years Have borne them all away; The Mill Wheels all are silent now Through all the live long day. But oh, the grandeur of those hills Where woodland paths lure on, They stir emotions in the breast Like summer's breeze at dawn.
