Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Joy After Sorrow: A Novel There was no prouder nor richer man in the length and breadth of Lancashire - county of ancient gentry and merchant princes - than John Zuriel, Esq., of Stor Court. His wealth was reputed to be boundless; his ancestors certainly were innumerable, and although it was currently reported and believed that Mr Zuriel´s father had lived and died, so to speak, with a bag on his back, and that the owner of Stor Court himself had, in his juvenile days, awakened, with the well- known melody of ´old clo´,´ the slumbering echoes of many a quiet Liverpool street: yet, now when his parent slept, if common rumour were to be credited, in the sack he had so long carried; and Mr Zuriel had forgotten not merely the strain above mentioned, but also the fact that he ever knew it - now, when in short he had made a fortune in business and retired from trade altogether, what did it signify how or where, or by what means, all the money he possessed, had been accumulated?
