Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tales of Old Toronto The time of which I write was some thirty years ago, when Belle Raymond was two-and-twenty. She was living in the house of her great-uncle Raymond. The dwelling was a dingy, semi-detached white brick house, characteristic of the period, and stood somewhere in the vicinity of Shuter and Bond streets. That was when Gerrard Street was uptown and Yorkville seemed a days journey. The household consisted of Uncle Raymond, who was over seventy, wrinkled, pale-eyed and white-bearded; Aunt Elizabeth, his wife, close on his own age; her sister. Aunt Anne; Belle, and Belles morose and trying brother Edward, aged about twenty-six, who with Belle had been left an orphan at an early age and had been adopted by Uncle Raymond. The sitting-room in the little white brick house was small and square, and had been papered some years before in brown with dull gold flowers touched up with red. Now the paper was rubbed and dingy. The chairs and sofa were of walnut, of an early Victorian design, and covered with horsehair. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
