Excerpt from Sir Rohan's Ghost: A Romance

Cornwall. Pleasant fields extended on either hand, a woody mountain climbed behind, and the long swells of the Atlantic rolled in front. Fine pictures adorned the galleries, soft draperies shrouded the apartments, and delicate sculptures confronted you at every turn. But something else confronted Sir Rohan; the Ghost had flitted too, and even here he found no rest. If he galloped up the lawns from his morning ride, the sad, pale face looked earnestly from door or Window on him and faded; and if he rowed homeward in the sunset, with his listless spray washed sail, the same face gazed from a balcony dreamily out to sea.
