Excerpt from Duncan Polite: The Watchman of Glenoro But Duncan Polite did not read. His eyes wan dered away over the landscape. It was a scene worth contemplating - an expansive tract of rich farm lands, stretching from the blue line of Lake Simcoe on the south, to another blue line on the northern horizon, where Lake Oro peeped through the sharp tops of the firs.' But to Duncan Polite, the best of all was the little valley that sloped abruptly from his very doorstep to the sparkling river.
