Excerpt from The Little Colonel, Maid of Honor It was mid-afternoon by the old sun-dial that marked the hours in Warwick Hall garden; a sunny afternoon in May. The usual busy routine of school work was going on inside the great Hall, but no whisper of it disturbed the quiet of the sleepy old garden.

Excerpt from The Little Colonel's Knight Comes Riding The farther he rode into the cool woods the better the idea pleased him, and Where the bridle path crossed a narrow creek he paused a moment before plunging down the bank. Somewhere up the ravine a Spring was trickling out in a ceaseless ow. He could not see it, but he could hear the gurgle Of the water, as cold and crystal clear it splashed down into its rocky basin.

Excerpt from Mildred's Inheritance: Just Her Way; Ann's Own Way If the violets blooming within the protecting walls of the old rectory garden had suddenly been torn up by the roots and thrown into the street, the change in their surroundings could have been no greater than that which came to Mildred in the first shock of her father's death. She had been like one in a confused dream ever since. Some one had answered the letter from her mother's brother in America, offering her a home. Some one had engaged her passage, and an Old friend of her father's had taken her to Liverpool and put her on board the steamer. Here she sat for the first three days, staring out at the sea, with eyes which saw nothing of its changing beauty, but always only a daisy covered mound in a little churchyard. All the happiness and hope that her life had, ended in that. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
