Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Blackwood´s Edinburgh Magazine, Vol. 107: January June, 1870 It was a soft and fine June evening in the year 181 -, so wonderfully soft and fine, indeed, that it was the very type of what an evening ought to be in that best of months. And yet, strange to say, although the inside of the coach that passed through Denethorp every day was full, there were no more than three of its passengers who preferred to closeness and confinement the sweetness and fragrance of the open air. Of these "outsides," one had come the whole distance from London, another had joined the coach some three or four stages off. and the third had mounted to his seat in the after part while the horses were being changed at Redchester. The latter was absorbed in conversation with the guard about the affairs of the road, the occupant of the box-seat was sound asleep, while the passenger who sat immediately behind was wrapped in a meditation that rendered him as blind to what lay to left and right as if his eyes also had been closed. Presently, however, the sleeper slowly opened his, gave a good long stretching yawn, and then, having satisfied himself as to the point of the journey at which he and his fellow-passengers had arrived, turned round to take a survey of his temporary companions, in the course of which his eyes at once encountered those of his rear-rank man. The faces of both brightened into recognition as they exclaimed simultaneously, - "Lester!" "Warden! why, where do you fall from?" Both were young men of nearly the same age, which was apparently about two-and-twenty, more or less; but, in every other respect, they were different enough. The occupant of the box-seat - he who had been addressed as Lester - would at once, and under any circumstances, have been set down as an uncommonly good-looking fellow, not only by women, but by men also.
