The coun- try between Sharpsburg and the Potomac River, through which one drives to reach the Antietam bridge, is a succes- 74 %owet Hntietam ant) Burnsifce's Brlfcge 75 sion of lolling hills, which as the river is neared become steeper and more crowded, like the foot-hills of the Cali- fornia coast ranges. In one place the mountains break, and one looks back through the opening to range on range, growing fainter in the distance. Among these crowded hills are farmhouses built on slopes, surroun...ded by stone walls. The houses themselves are of gray limestone, with great barns and clustering out-houses. Little paths lead through pasture bars down steep hillsides, and places which the plough cannot reach are lit up with pink redbud, and dog- wood's snow. There is something Japanese in the character of both of these, in the knotted boughs of the one, and the horizontal planes of the other. Here and there on rock breaks in hilly fields, dark cedars throw out in high relief their peach-like blossoms, and sheets of snow.
