Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Otto the Knight, and Other Trans-Mississippi Stories Aunt Betsey Graham, who kept the plantation tavern, stood in her wide gallery-way, waiting for the mill whistle to send her boarders to supper. There was not a kinder woman in Lawrence County, or, in a homely fashion, a better cook. Look at her, now, in the shadow of the old-fashioned porch, built when bears were shot in the cypress brake: her portly form is clad in a red and black striped cotton gown and white apron; her gray hair is as thick as a girl´s, her little brown eyes twinkle jovially, the hardy late roses bloom on her tanned cheeks, and nobody on the plantation has such beautiful, white, store teeth. She sees the road, a broad, then a narrow, then a fading streak of yellow, cutting the cotton-fields and defining the borders of the brake.
