Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Greater Mischief a Novel, Vol. 1 The light of the lamp flickered about the quiet little figure, and filled the rest of the long room with ghostly, moving shadows. Audrey's brown head was bent low over her work; slowly, with laborious care, she put in the crooked stitches on the piece of coarse linen that when finished was destined to be a pudding-cloth. She sat at the table, and only her small shoulders and head appeared above it. In front of her there was a cheap little yellow wooden work-box; it contained reels of white and black cotton, pins, needles, and scissors, all arranged With an exemplary tidiness. The same scrupulous neat ness was apparent in the arrangement of the old-fashioned frock, pinafore, stockings, hair. Alone in the parlor Audrey sat and Worked at her hem. It was a rough night, and the storm outside was increasing. The little square gray house topped a hill: for many years it had stood, lonely and sad, defying storms with a sturdy front.
