The scheme works and not only do they claim the land, but "Bloom" wins the Baron's daughter, while "Herman" also wins the maiden of his choice, "Louisa." This is but a mere outline of the story, but its telling by Smith was not only responsible for the first successful opera written by an American, but another play, supposed to have been written by Garrit Furman, "The Falls of the Genesee" was the outcome of the tale. In the preface to the latter play the author makes the following state- ment:... "The following tale was told to the late Mr.
Hawkins, and the author of this piece, by Richard Smith, Esq., of Setauket, Long Island, at a convivial meeting a few years ago.

Hawkins, by intermingling songs, glees, &c. length- ened it into an Opera, which was performed with con- siderable success at Chatham Garden Theatre.
