Excerpt from Behind the Blue Ridge: A Homely NarrativeCome one! Come all! The more the merrier. It's a dull life I've been leading, thought the road, and took the greatest interest in the events of each day, and looked eagerly at every traveller, and though it was keenly mortified by their comments on its roughness, or its length, or the steepness of its declivities, it was delighted with the improvement in its condition. But, disgusted by the...

Excerpt from Claudia Hyde: A Novel The ordinary domestic would have reminded him of the fact by saying, Did you ring, sir?
