Book excerpt: Excerpt from Topham's Folly One little group he detected working apart from the rest - a woman clad like the others in cotton dress and sun-bonnet, whose shading eaves hid her face from him, and three children, a girl and two boys, the girl a Copy of her mother save that her frock was protected by a pinafore, the boys in blue shirts and well-patched nether garments, whose curious shape betrayed labori ous fashioning from some discarded paternal pair; and trundled along with them and never staid beyond the mother's sight or call of her voice, a baby girl in a hand-made cart of wood, Sitting contentedly on a little heap of clean sacking. Old Fall, seeing work slackening as across the fields from the house came a procession of youths and maids bearing baskets and cans, cans that gleamed like Silver when the sun caught: them, turned and trotted his cob towards this same little group.
