In the days when New England was only a group of thinly settled wildernesses called 'provinces,' there was something almost like the old feudal tenure of lands there, and a relation between the rich land-owner and his tenants which had many features in common with those of the relation between margraves and vassals in the days of Charlemagne. Far up in the North, near the Canada line, there lived at that time an eccentric old man, whose name is still to be found here and there on the tattered parchments, written 'WILLAN BLAYCKE, Gentleman.'
