Excerpt from The OutlawWell, it's no concern of mine. What does concern me is that if the Squire has really cleared out of this old kennel it will make a rare meeting-place for my men and me when our work lies in these parts. He went on, and, having passed and scrutinised the sweeping double fronts and weed grown Greek portico, turned an angle of the building which led to the very old portions of Castle Adair.Then suddenly, in the open casement of an old stone mullioned window in the gable, framed in a glory of roses, he saw a face lovelier than any rose - the sweetest face he had ever seen.It was the face of a young girl Of eighteen, set in a splendour of golden hair, with eyes of a rich, deep velvety brown.The unusual combination of golden hair and a complexion exquisitely fair and soft, with those great, rich deep - brown eyes, made a type of beauty as rare as it was dazzling.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
