Synopsis

Excerpt from Betty Musgrave

This was a cheerful, home-like place, always kept very spruce about the doors, for old Miss Musgrave kept a sharp eye upon everything, allowing no slackened fences or uncut grass about her establishment. Her brother, the owner, was in India, with no money to spare, and therefore only too glad that she should live in the house.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Yarrow of the poets choice, but a little unnamed river, known only to those who had heard its song since childhood, there stood the ruin of an old Border fortress: scarred by fire and storms, roofless now, and long untenanted, it looked down grimly on the valley below. From the steep knoll on which the tower stood, the winding road that ran along the valley could be seen for a long way ;while, close at hand, not more than a quarter of a mile from the old ruin, was the small, comparatively modern house, to which, in later times, the last branch of the family had hived off. This was a cheerful, home-like place, always kept very spruce about the doors, for old Miss Musgrave kept a sharp eye upon everything, allowing no slackened fences or uncut grass about her establishment. Her brother, the owner, was in I ndia, with no money to spare, and therefore only too glad that she should live in the house, and keep the place in order.
