Excerpt from Sowing the Wind, Vol. 2 of 3: A NovelThose bright days to come seemed to have already partially dawned upon the widow, for since her first unlucky loss, and the wide blank of friendlessness into which she had plunged on her arrival, She had not had to bear either poverty or loneliness. Richard Norton's mys terious supplies kept her well provided, so that at least the bitter pang of immediate want was spared her, and She was too weak and helpless to consider for the future. Besides, She had a child's reliance on the lawyer, and when he told her that he would take care of her and her baby, She felt sure that all would come right if he promised to protect her.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
