A pot luck sup- per at 6:00 pm will be followed by an interest- ing program. Ivan and Margaret McClymont once again hosted the annual G.A. Henty gathering at their home and the Bayfield Village Inn on Aug. 20, 21 and 22. Ehthusiasts of the famous 19th century British author and war correspondent attended from Maine, South Carolina, Virginia, Alberta and Ontario. Henty books sold by the hundred of thousands are now collected not only for their historical tales .but many were pro- duced in beautiful pictor- ial covers that are much sought after today. Of the hundred or more titles, quite a number are still in publication and are used extensively by home schoolers to teach history rather than the political correct versions taught in the regular school system today. The gathering opened • Friday night with supper at the Inn followed by an open house and campfire at the McClymont farm. The annual boot sale and swap meet took place at the Inn on Saturday followed by book reviews on "All But Lost", the rarest of Henty's adult novels, "Captain Bayley's Heir", a tale of the California gold fields in 1849 and "With Wolfe in Canada",, a story of thecapture of Louisbourg and Quebec. Harland Eastman, a New England book deal- er and collector gave a presentation on the Scribner and Welford U.S. editions of the 1880's. The formal session ended with a presenta- tion on variant covers on Canadian editions of Henty. Meals on Saturday and a farewell breakfast on Sunday were all held at the Inn.
