Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Howe Family Gathering, at Harmony Grove, South Framingham, Thursday, Aug; 31, 1871 In the heart of Oxfordshire stands Wrox ton Abbey, the seat of the Norths. It is an old ecclesiastical structure, turned into a. Modern residence of surpassing beauty, where all that is antique is preserved with religious care, and gracefully interwoven with whatever can administer to refined lux ury and convenience. It is surrounded by forty thousand acres of the best land in Eng land. The outlying farms are cultivated by a prosperous tenantry, whose families have occupied the same lands for centuries, many of whom keep hunters worth five hundred guineas, and pay a thousand sovereigns a year of annual rent. Ancestral trees, older than the Abbey, fling their shadows down upon sinuous walks and carriage-drives that appear almost endless; whilst every window in the house looks out upon verdant lawns, well-kept gardens, or clumps of tree-roses, interspersed with masses of evergreens, the preservation of which is so much favored by the moist climate of England.
