Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hilary Thornton Amid the picturesque country of the southern Yorkshire wolds - ten miles west of Hull and six miles north of the Humber - lies the little village of West Drewton. It is called a village from long custom and by the will of its few inhabitants, but its claims to that title are not incontestable, consisting, all told, of a railway-station, some scattered cottages, one high-road, one muddy lane, and two houses of considerable pretensions. Though so near a humming commercial centre it has remained in still seclusion; summer and winter a lonely peace broods over it. Local consequence is severely adjudged by the tale of bricks composing a mans abode. It follows, therefore, that, of the two houses to which reference has been made, the occupants of the Hall received a fractionally deeper deference from the village folk, a fractionally nicer courtesy from the neighbouring families, than those of the Manor.
