Excerpt from The Story of a Family, Vol. 2 Perfect quiet was the doctor's prescription; he said there was excitability of brain - great nervous irritation; he administered sundry tranquillizing doses, directed that the patient should be put to bed, and took his leave. From the moment in which Madeline aroused from the state of insensibility into which she had fallen, she spoke not a word; but her eyes wandered incessantly about the room with a plaintive, wistful expression, as if seeking something which they could not find. At length the tardy opiate had its effect, and she slept; Ida watching beside her. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Story of a Family, Vol. 1 of 2 IF the writer could flatter herself that this story contained only such defects as would seem to be inseparable from a tale composed c'l phwieurs reprises, she might, perhaps, put in a plea for indulgence. But as she entertains no such com fortable conviction, she thinks it wiser to send it forth without apology, to encounter a judg ment, which, though it will probably be somewhat less apt than her own to discern merits, can scarcely be more alive to imperfections, and assuredly cannot condemn them so unequivocally, because it is impossible that it should feel them.

Excerpt from Under One Roof, Vol. 2 of 3: An Episode in a Family History Lady Arden had acknowledged to herself that Mr. Frederic Mayne was an acquisition - a compliment she generally reserved for persons of title who came to settle in the neighbourhood. Milly was fairly enchanted with him, and would have shown her approbation openly but for the wicked raillery in which George had indulged at breakfast time. The new arrival had said something to interest or amuse every member of the party; not exclusive of little Frankie, to whom he told a dreadful ghost story, of how he was visited by a short but expansive being all in white. And what do you think it was?' he inquired, after the thrilling narra tive. Well; I dare say it was only a nightmare, ' said Frankie made sceptical by the other's laughing eye.

Excerpt from The Head of the Family, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel A pleasant thing is a family letter - a great epistolary nosegay, made up of all sorts of flowers. Ninian sat rejoicing over one of these, a fortnight or so after he had established himself in solitude at The Gowans. For, since that night when Rachel appeared at Musselburgh, he had felt that he was scarce welcome there. Nor could he breathe to any living soul the tragedy of that poor forlorn one's story.

Excerpt from The Fortunes of the Scattergood Family, Vol. 2 of 3 IT was bright morning when Freddy awoke again. Birds were singing around him; the dewdrops on the grass were sparkling like dia monds in the early sunbeams; the little perk ing squirrels were darting from one tree to another, now running along the branches, now just shewing their noses from the fork of a bough; and at various parts of the woodland, tall, undisturbed columns of smoke were rising above the foliage from the cottages. All the horrid creatures that had surrounded him in the gloomy night resumed their natural forms. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Wives and Daughters, Vol. 2: An Every-Day Story Old Silas lay in a sort of closet, opening out of the family-living room. The small window that gave it light looked right on to the moor, as it was called and by day the check curtain was drawn aside so that he might watch the progress of the labour. Every thing about the old man was clean, of course; and, with Death, the leveller, so close at hand, it was the labourer who made the first advances, and put out his horny hand to the squire.

Excerpt from The Home, Vol. 2 of 2: Or, Family Cares and Family Joys I know that I am old, old before my time; that I am ugly and disagreeable, unpleasant, and perhaps ridiculous; but I do not think that nature intended me to be so. I have gone through life in such infinite solitude; neither father nor mother, brother nor sister, have followed my path; no sunshine fell upon my childhood or my youth; I have wandered solitarily through life, combating with difficulties. Once I bound myself to a friend, - he deserted me, and thence grew the rock about my heart; thence became my demeanour severe, unattractive, and rough. Is it to remain so always? Will my life never bloom upon earth? Will no. Breath of heaven call forth my roses? Do you fear my melancholy temperament? Oh, you have not seen how a glance, a word of yours chases every cloud from my brow; not because you are beautiful, but because you are good and pure.
