Excerpt from The Master of Riverswood a Novel, Vol. 3 of 3 The winter passed away. Christmas - with its wonderful "Weihnachtsabend" for the young Hoffners, when the "grand salon" was thrown open, when wax lights were shining everywhere, when madame was in silk and smiles (she possessed dresses, shawls, and jewels enough to have been a small fortune to a woman "going into society"), when monsieur was beaming, and the guests cheerful, and the beautiful illuminated fir-tree the centre of a wealth of presents - all this was a thing of the past.
