Excerpt from Beatrix Rohan: A Novel

A week later, in the dead of a dark and stormy night when the colonists were all housed and asleep in their hamlet at the farther edge of the estate, when even the servants were in bed, a close traveling carriage came swiftly along the narrow road threading the plain, and drew up before the massive gateway Of the chateau. A servant, a stupid-looking Fleming, dismounted from the box and pulled the bell violently. He was obliged to repeat the summons many times before a light glim mered through one Of the windows Of the chateau, and the Old Fleming housekeeper put up the sash and demanded shrilly what was wanted.
