Excerpt from Rose O' the Sea: A Romance All day long Rose had been walking. In her grief she had covered miles. She could not have remained ih active in the little peaceful Cornish village that lay in the sun: every one there watched her so curiously, so covertly. N 0 one had come up to her after the funeral. Up here, amongst the rocks and crags, she could cry her heart out. She derived a certain solace from these frowning rocks. They were gaunt and solemn, yet kind; they reminded her of him. Sunshine was not in her to-day, in her who was usually all radiance and happy laughter, a sunbeam of a girl. Henry Eton, the queer old man who had named her for the wild roses on the shore, who had been father and mother and nurse to her, was gone, and she was alone as on the day when the sea had brought her to him, flotsam then, flotsam again.
