Excerpt from Owen, Vol. 1 of 3: A WaifWhat that the rain came down when the last Welsh colt was sold, and a wretched animal of eighteen years, with its teeth scoured and its tusks filed, remained still a dead lot on its owner's hands, the bond fide cattle fair was at end, and the drinking and quarrelsome evening that invariably Wound up the proceedings was an illegitimate ap pendage, only countenanced by a non descript crowd and a few Markshire roughs. Sober people had wound their way down the steep hill to the town, and their respective villages lying five, ten, fifteen miles beyond the Downs; and those who had stopped to revel and get drunk after the day's business deserved a wetting for the nonce, and there was no honest Markshire soul to pity them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
