Excerpt from Hester Kirton, Vol. 3 of 3 It was a bright spring morning, not that early time when we almost wonder how the rash young leaves can venture to cast off their scaly covering, and bare themselves to nipping winds by day and cruel night frosts, but genial warmth, in which even a few early brimstone butterflies disported themselves among the blackberry bushes on each side of the stately old high road. Just at this point, it was picturesque as well as stately. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Excerpt from Doris Barugh a Yorkshire Story, Vol. 1 of 3 The day had been full of mist, a soft white veil clung to the side of the steep hill, and blotted out the village straggling up from the river below to the old grey church, with its low crenellated tower, and screen of tall fir-trees, standing on the skirts of the moor, some hundreds of feet above the valley. This screen of old, thin fir-trees, set north and west within the loosely piled stone fence that shut in the churchyard, gave a weird, haunted look to the spot.

He had made up his mind to ask Doris to be his wife, let her father's answer to him be what it would, and yet he had hesitated to show this determination beforehand; therefore he had not begun by saying to Mr. Barugh he was on his way to Steersley.

Excerpt from Doris Barugh, Vol. 3 of 3: A Yorkshire Story June, "the sweetest and gentlest of months," was at its loveliest. The garden at Burneston Hall glowed with the purple and white and yellow of rhododendrons and azaleas - the last of every hue - orange, scarlet,, purple, and primrose. Showing above these were groups of scarlet hawthorn and snowballs of guelder rose, shaded with golden showers of pendent laburnum - the luxuriant wealth of autumn, with the tender tints and coy delicacy of spring on the leaves and on the grass.

Not illustrated. 1882 edition. Excerpt: ... Runswick arranged for the child to remain with Mrs. Butler during the holidays. When Clemency was nine years old her uncle went to see her. He smiled at her and questioned.her, and 'seemed pleased with her progress, and congratulated Mrs. Butler on the care she was taking of her pupil. Each year he had repeated his visit, and he always took his niece some charming gift; he said little either to Clemency or to Mrs. Butler, but the latter saw how much his interest increased in his niece, while Clemency had grown to feel again the old child-worship for Uncle Esau now restored to his pedestal; although it must be owned that a good deal of awe surrounded him. On her seventeenth birthday she received a handsomer present than usual--a beautiful gold watch and a locket inclosing a portrait of her mother. But the letter that came with the gifts took away much of the pleasure they gave. It told her that her uncle was going to travel for a year or so, and that she would not see him in the interval. The year lengthened out to nearly three, and it was not till after her twentieth birthday that Clemency received her recall to Hollow Mill. She did not know till the time for parting came how sorely it would try her to leave the Butlers. They were a small group now compared with the bright, lively family she had been welcomed into so lovingly, twelve years ago. Mr. Butler had died, and 'so had his two young daughters, and last spring, Dorothy, past thirty now, but still charming, had been married. So there were only tearful, widowed Mrs. Butler and her eldest daughter Mary to return the warm kisses and hugs which Clemency seemed as if she could not leave off giving. "I shall have no one to kiss up there," she said, through her tears....

Come and play with me, Monique!" The crest of light yellow hair, that had a trick of falling over his bright dark eyes, stood erect and quivered with excitement as he stood up on his hind legs and fought the air with his little silky paws, barking all the while at Monique. "You funny Toto!" cried Monique, and she began to laugh merrily. Toto was delighted; he sprang down on the grass and danced round Monique till she got up and ran after him. Just then Madame Roussel looked out of the window and saw the little girl, her frock flecked with the chequered light and shade of the bean-arbour, dancing with Toto. "She will go with that dog, she is so fond of him," said the good woman. "Dear, dear! I hope that mountebank will never come back." A voice in the passage startled her. It was Monsieur le Baron, and with him a tall lady dressed in black. "Good-day, Madame Roussel," said the Baron. "Where is little Monique? I have brought a friend to see her. You have seen Madame de Norville before?" The landlady curtsied; she knew Madame de Norville very well, as the lady who, when she came to stay with her sister, the Baroness, at the chateau, always sent down to the inn for her freshest eggs and for the ripest of those beautiful cherries when they were in season, as if she had a right to them. But still, she was the Baroness's sister, so Madame Roussel curtsied and smiled. "Little Monique is in the garden, madame; I will call her." But the lady had also seen the pretty picture of ...

Excerpt: ...the narrow path--Stanmore's back was turned towards him, but Drusilla faced him, and there was a light in her eyes and a bright red flush on her cheeks that looked like anger. "You have your choice," she said. "It is better to find out now than later on that I do not suit you--you want to keep me in a cage like some poor moped bird, and I--I--Ah! here is Mr. Yardon; perhaps you will listen to him." She tried to hurry away up the walk, but as she passed him Mr. Yardon took her hand and drew it under his arm. ".Quarrelling already," he said with a sneer; "why, you are as bad as the birds--Stanmore, my good fellow, you must give women their heads at first or they'll kick over the traces--what's it all about, eh?" Drusilla had pulled out her handkerchief, and she put it to her eyes. "He's so false," she said, in a choked voice; "he wants to break his promise not to tell." Mr. Yardon walked on in silence till they all stood by the sunk fence. He noticed that Stanmore looked pale, and that the veins on his temples showed unusually. He looked now fully at Mr. Yardon with a dumb agony in his eyes. "I was a fool to consent yesterday; you over-ruled me, but then I did not know these other fellows were at the Manor House. I can't see that it is fair either to them or to me that she is to be considered free." "I am at least free to go away, am I not? It isn't kind to discuss me to my face." Drusilla gave Mr. Yardon an imploring look as she ended, but he kept his eyes on Luke Stanmore while his hold on the hand he had drawn under his arm tightened. "I am quite of your opinion," he said, as if Drusilla had not...

Excerpt from Appledore Farm, Vol. 1 of 3 Some little way above Church Marshfield the high road to the market town of Parley begins to climb a ridge, the lower one of two steep sides to a green and fertile valley; at the bottom of this valley, a little way before the high road turns leftward from the ridge to seek a lower level, lies Appledore Farm. The gables of the old half-timbered house can be seen across the sloping meadow below the road, but a thick yew hedge, set stiffly round the place, screens the lower windows and the garden from any curious eyes.

Excerpt from Appledore Farm, Vol. 3 of 3 It seemed to Ruth, as she went up the lane, that Michael was disposed to listen to her suggestion about the journey to France; she had only to persevere, and she should persuade him to go. She therefore shortened her walk, and gave up the visit she had meant to pay Lucy Voce and little George. The boy's quaint childish talk was always an amusement to her, even in these sad days, but she was impatient to return to the subject of Michael's journey to Burgundy, and she saw that she could not get back to Appledore in time for a talk with him, if she went on to Little Marshfield.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

(Our book treats of a few of the Hill-cities of Umbria, bu...)
Our book treats of a few of the Hill-cities of Umbria, but it does not attempt exhaustive detail in regard to Perugia, Assisi, or any other. Several old contemporary writers have greatly helped the book, notably the delightful chronicler Matarazzo, and some of his fellows; besides the "Legend of the Three Companions," and the very quaint "Fioretti di San Francesco." "The Life of San Bernardino of Siena," by Pierre Clément, was also very useful. In the book itself I speak of the great enjoyment I found in Monsieur Paul Sabatier's thoughtful "Vie de Saint François d'Assisi," and in Miss Lina Duff Gordon's charming "Story of Assisi." KATHARINE S. MACQUOID. The Edge, Tooting Common April 1905 AN ANCIENT HILL-CITY It has been said that the face which exercises most permanent charm is the face whose attractions defy analysis; one in which beauty is subtle, compounded of many and varied qualities, so that, gazing at the harmonious whole, it is impossible to specialise its fascination. Such a face will not, at first, reveal its charm, for much of this does not lie only in regularity of feature, or in beauty of colouring, nor even in the trick of a smile; the spell is so potent, that when one at last tries to find out its secret, the mind refuses to dispel the sweet illusion by any such work-a-day process, and agrees with the hasheesh smoker, "to enjoy the sweet dream while it lasts." Places, as well as faces, exert this undefined attraction, but in the former, association often intrudes itself, a conscious ingredient in the witchery they possess for us. I am just now thinking of a city where much of the historic association is repulsive, even horrible; looking at the old grey walls of Perugia, the mind strays backward, to times when these ancient palaces with barred lower windows were gloomy fortresses, in which ghastly tragedies were acted over and over again. In some of the old houses dissolute sons plotted how to murder their fathers and brothers, how to commit every sort of crime; blood has run like water in the grass-grown streets and piazzas,—and not only with the blood of an Oddi, shed by a fierce Baglione, the two leading families always fighting for power in their city: the one party being Guelph, and the other Ghibelline. There was even worse strife than this: at times near and dear kinsmen fought hand to hand in the constant brawls of Perugia; murder was done in the churches, even before the high altar of the cathedral. Softer, quainter memories, however, linger in this hill-throned and hill-girdled city, and permeate the atmosphere, in spite of the "reek of blood" which, a poet once told me, "taints Perugia." Up the brick-stepped way, beneath a tall dark arch, came, even in those years of rapine and murder, the grave Urbino painter, Giovanni Sanzio, with his fair-haired son, Raffaelle. Giovanni came to Perugia to place the lad with the illiterate genius of Città del Pieve, Pietro Vannucci, whose praise was in every one's mouth, and who had already set up a school and was ranked a great painter. The Perugians still fondly call him "il nostro Perugino." It is said that Pietro was born in the ancient hill-city. One feels sure that Raffaelle must have been petted and tenderly loved. The father and son made a striking picture as they came from the dark archway into the sunlight,—Raffaelle mounted on his mule, his dainty locks falling over his shoulders in glossy waves of brightness.

In a moment he had regained the footpath, and he looked forward. The ruined Abbaye stood out dark and massive in the wide landscape, surrounded--except where the huge entrance-gates came--by high walls, built of the stone of the country, decaying slowly and imperceptibly beneath the moonlight. Désiré strained his eyes in vain; there was nothing moving between him and the.Abbaye. His father's manoeuvre flashed upon him. Martin had forced his way through the hedge, 'but had gone no farther; and while his son had been losing himself in the darkness, he had returned to the road, and had been making sure progress towards the farm. Muttering against his own folly, Désiré at once directed his course towards the road, in the hope of being yet in time. It was as he had feared. Martin Leliévre had scrambled over the hedge, and had dropped under it for the rest he so greatly needed; and when Désiré darted off to find the path across the fields he almost brushed by his father, who lay prostrate on the grass, holding in his panting breath for fear of discovery. He had been a better runner in his day than Désiré, and was still, except in sustaining power, fully his match. His spirits rose with the success of his stratagem. He should accomplish his purpose, and make his son happy and eternally grateful to himself. Then, surely, Céline would rest. He regained the road, his mind growing wilder and more ungoverned as he hurried on. He was within a few yards of the avenue leading to the Abbaye gates. In Martin's present haste it seemed to him that these...

Monsieur le Petit's shop is just beyond this corner, and he quickens his pace as he passes by, lest madame should perceive that he is accompanied, and should come forward and claim his attention., "I thought"--the shop, with its coils of hair and bottles of perfume, is safely passed, and Monsieur le Petit is himself again---"I thought," he repeats, "that Mam'selle Victoire was to live with you always. Is it not so, madame?" Marie's lips are pressed impatiently together, but the hair-dresser looks inquiringly in her face--he will have an answer. "It was so arranged; but what will you, monsieur? Young girls have their fancies, and it is Victoire's fancy now to go and live with her cousin, the widow Lesage." "Ma foi! the widow Lesage--the widow Lesage, do you say?"--Monsieur le Petit's eye-brows are raised, and he repeats each syllable distinctly, as if trying to discover the secret of Victoire's behaviour--"has the cousin Lesage a family?" "She has one son, Georges, who manages the farm." Marie Carmier tries to look indifferent, but it is hard to do this under the sharp scrutiny of Monsieur le Petit's eyes. "Georges--Georges Lesage. Hé, ma foi! but I know him; Georges Lesage is of my friends, and he is a well-made, well-mannered youth." "Bon jour, my friend," Marie Carmier says abruptly,' although they have not nearly reached St. Etienne. Monsieur le Petit has stopped as they passed a doorway just beyond the Hotel Ste.

"And if I do catch him on the roof will you make it six hundred?" said a tall gypsy-looking youth, who had come into the yard after the rest.. "Yes! But, in heaven's name, make haste; he has found the window!" Leroux's words were accompanied by a laugh that came from the roof of the Abbaye, a mocking laugh, that sounded wild and unearthly to the rest, but which Desire' knew too well. Some of the men below had by this time lit torches, which threw a smoky light upwards. The rest were helping their master to splice the ladder; but it was so badly fractured that this was not easy. Desire' Lelievre alone stood statue-like, his eyes fascinated as if by a spell on the moving figure, which now, having at last made sure of the windowmoulding, sat astride the parapet, stretching one hand downward to grasp the carved tracery. Martin's movements had been much more rapid since Leroux had last spoken. Desire wondered that the men (for several, tempted by the increased reward, had followed the gypsy) did not appear at the window. He did not know how difficult the broken, winding turret staircase was to climb. Ah! the outstretched hand has found the tracery now. In another instant the whole body will be over the parapet. Desire can no longer restrain himself. Hitherto his terror has been lest his father should be recognized, but now he calls out loudly: "Father! father! stay, I will bring the ladder; no one shall harm thee!" There is no answer; the body swings over the parapet, while both hands cling to the tracery; then they slide quickly to the central mullion, the whole weight of the body dragging from them. Desire' stands in speechless horror. He sees the clinging figure twice strive to force its way t...

While she sat thinking, Antoine had put the letter into his pocket and had buttoned up his coat. Now he nodded to his sister, and, running his fingers through his hair, he took up his hat and went out. Madame Boulotte went on thinking. The longer she thought over Antoine's suspicion about Jeanne, the more likely it seemed to be the truth, and, therefore, the more determined she became not to believe it. Resolutely she shut her eyes to all the little memories which link by link came starting up from the past year, till they formed a chain of evidence which only wilful blindness could discredit. But Madame Boulotte chose to be wilfully blind to the fact that any attachment to Jeanne had existed on the side of Edmond Dupuis. "He cared to go to the cottage because it gave Beside the Rivzr. I. I0 him an excuse for rowing, it was only for amusement," she said, her eyes sparkling and a glow of mortified pride burning under them; "he looked on Jeanne as a child. I understood poor dear Edmond thoroughly, he wanted a steadfast friend, and he had one while he was here;" she sighed softly, and then she frowned, and her smiling lips curved into their most cynical aspect. "But for that fossil of a cousin and this intriguing little widow we had still been dear friends. However it is sweet of the poor fellow to ask me to his marriage." The door opened and Antoine put in his head again. "If I bring Jeanne back with me can you make room for her to-day," he said. "I don't like leaving her in that desolate place." Madame...

Since Clemency had come to Hollow Mill the tenor of his monotonous life had been completely changed; some disturbing thing or other presented itself almost daily in connection with his niece's residence in his house.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1892. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XVIII. WHEN JOHN COMES HOME. Molly had tried hard to think only of Berris, but for all that the weeks had seemed intolerably long. John Statham had started a fortnight ago, but to Molly it seemed like three fortnights since she had seen Michael Yarm. She called him Michael now. She had overcome the awe with which he at first had inspired her; he seemed to her still a being to be worshipped as well as loved, and she gloried in noticing the weight that seemed to attach itself to his opinion. Molly had been present when Mr. Gledhow told his daughter that John Statham thought of going to Australia, and he said that he had advised Statham to consult Dr. Yarm. "His judgment is so clear," the old lawyer said; "if he agrees, then I am sure Statham ought to go to his sister." A few days after John Statham's departure, Dr. Yarm had been summoned to Scotland, to the dying bed of an uncle whom he had not seen for years. Berris had gone out by herself. She told her sister that she preferred sometimes to bo alone, while to Molly it had been like a holiday to be able to write a long letter to Michael, and to be free to dream about him as much as she pleased. She was still thinking of him, and of the happy life that lay before them, when he came unannounced into the room. He looked so full of delight, he kissed her so rapturously, that Molly was content with the delicious silence, and did not try to break it. At last she pushed him gently away. "I thought you did not expect to return till to-morrow?" "Yes, but I was summoned, and I am not come to stay; only I had to pass Woolton, and I slipped in between trains. You will see me very soon, darling. The maid said her mistress was out, so I told her I would announce myself. You were not alarmed, were you, my darling...

Excerpt from Lost Rose, Vol. 1 of 3: And Other Stories A road winds beside green hills, and is carried ten-ace-like across a valley leading to the sea; a village is scattered along this road in unsociable fashion, two and three cottages at a time, with a space between the groups, as if the inhabitants of the little cob-walled thatched dwellings were too quarrelsome for near neighbourhood. Not quite a mile below the road the sea shows in a large opal triangle against the pale sky; and on each side of this high cliffs, wooded and grass-grown, guard the shingled entrance to Mercombe Mouth. Three valleys from among the green hills unite to form this one which leads to the sea; and through it a river winds in and out, bordered by ash-trees, and gleams from among them like a silver thread.

Excerpt from Lost Rose, Vol. 2 of 3: And Other Stories The house was larger than many Breton dwellings, as there was a story above the great ground-floor room, that served for sleeping, eating, and living in; but, like the rest of Huelgoat, it was built of granite, and had small and few windows, and a thatched roof, grey with weather stains. The tall man had to stoop to pass under the arched doorway, and he put his hand up to keep his broad-leaved, low-crowned black hat on his head, as he stepped into the passage which divided the chief sitting-room from a smaller one at the side of the house. "One might as well be at sea." He gave a frank, hearty laugh. "Wake up there, Jean Marie. I tell thee the old chimneys are shaking in the wind. Rouse up, brother." He walked noisily across the uneven clay floor, his sabots jarring against the stones set every here and there, to a long bench in front of the open fireplace, and put his hand on Jean Marie's shoulder.

Excerpt from Lost Rose, Vol. 3 of 3: And Other Stories The quaint white gateway, with gateway, with black-capped round towers on each side, comes at the bottom of a straggling street, and suddenly ends the town. Pass under the gloomy archway, and you find yourself at once among trees and green meadows. There is not so much as a cottage to let you down gently to solitude - to form a link between town and country. The gateway itself helps this abruptness; on the town-side a few clinging ivy wreaths throw themselves from the adjoining house timidly, as if they knew how incongruous is their grace with the severe dungeon-like architecture.
