Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Stories of Village, and Town Life: Or Word-Pictures of Old England
The stories which make up this volume have been selected from various annuals which have been brought together after many years collecting by a lover of books. They are presented as reliable pen-pictures of life as it was presented in our country places before the exodus of many of their inhabitants to crowded centres, and of the peaceful days which preceded the advent of the motor-car.
It should be added that the author of these stories was born in 1787, and that she died in 1855.
