Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tales of My Landlord, Vol. 2 of 3: Collected and Arranged Yea, this man´s brow, like to a tragic leaf, Foretels the nature of a tragic volume. Shakspeare. Being at length rid of the housekeeper´s presence, Morton made a collection of what he had reserved from the provisions set before him, and prepared to carry them to his concealed guest. He did not think it necessary to take a light, being perfectly acquainted with every turn of the road; and it was lucky he did not do so, for he had hardly stepped beyond the threshold ere a heavy trampling of horses announced, that the body of cavalry, whose kettle-drums they had before heard, were in the act of passing along the high-road which winds round the foot of the bank on which the house of Milnwood was placed. He heard the commanding officer distinctly give the word halt. A pause of silence followed, interrupted only by the occasional neighing or pawing of an impatient charger. ´Whose house is this?´ said a voice in a tone of authority and command. ´Milnwood, if it like your honour,´ was the reply.
