THE HEART OF REBELLION Harry, with his friend Colonel Leonidas Talbot, approached Charleston on Christmas morning.

It was a most momentous day to him.

As he came nearer, the place looked greater and greater.

He had read much about it in the books in his father's house--old tales of the Revolution and stories of its famous families--and now its name was in the mouths of all men.
He had felt a change in his own Kentucky atmosphere at Nashville, but it had become complete when he drew near to Charleston.

It was a different world, different alike in appearance and in thought.
