Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Battle-Field of Life We were sitting round the fire, not talking much. At least, for half an hour past, there had been more of silence than of words. It was Ellie´s sixteenth birthday, and we had had a little merry-making. Lennox had consented for once to lay aside his evening work and mother her mending. But the merry-making did not last long uninterrupted. The postman´s rap came sounding along the street, and uncle Amory Pleydell´s letter effectually banished cheerfulness. We did not say much, until our two schoolboys, Gordon and Edwy, had betaken themselves off to bed. And I do not think we told them anything beyond the fact of uncle John Pleydell´s death. The letter was quietly passed to and fro among us elder ones, but Esmeralda´s name was hardly even mentioned.
