Excerpt from The Deerslayer; Or the First War Path, Vol. 1 of 2: A Tale
The intention has been to put the sisters in strong con trast; one, admirable in person, clever, filled with the pride of beauty, erring, and fallen; the other, barely provided with sufficient capacity to know good from evil, instinct, notwithstanding, with the virtues of woman, reverencing and loving God, and yielding only to the weakness of her sex, in admiring personal attractions in one too coarse and unobservant to distinguish or to understand the quiet, gentle feeling in his favor.

To carry one and the same character through five several works would seem to be a wilful overdrawing on the good nature of the public, and many persons may very reasonably suppose it an act, of itself, that ought to invite a rebuke. To this natural objection, the author can only say that, if he has committed a grave fault on this occasion, his readers are in some measure answerable for it. The favourable manner in which the more advanced career, and the death of LeatherS tocking were received, has created, in the mind of the author, at least, a sort of necessity for giving some account of his younger days. In short, the pictures of his life, such as they are, were already so complete as to excite some little desire to see the study, from which they have all been drawn. The Leather-S tocking Tales now form some thing like a drama in five acts jcomplete as to material and design, though probably very incomplete as to execution. Such as they are, the reading world has them before it.
