Books with title Friendship Stories

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

We promised A rchie, and Im wishful to see how she gets on wi the man that sold carpets. So the carriage, bearing theM isses Moira, of Craig Moira, their plaids, pugs, ear-trumpets, and courier, continued its course across theE oman Campagna, and up the steep and wooded roads that led to the old Castle ofF iordelisa. The Misses Moira, of Moira, lived on their own lands inC aithness, were very rich, very ugly, very eccentric, spoke with a strong native accent,and delivered their opinions uncalled for; two of their sisters children were respectively theD uchess ofF orfar and theM arquis ofF ingal; the younger was the echo of the elder both wore spectacles, both were deaf; and neither ever forgot that theM oiras, of Craig Moira, had the right to sit before their sovereign, and were allied with half the bluest blood and highest names in Great Britain. They were now aboit to call on one of their connections, and gazed anxiously through their spectacles for the Castle ofF iordelisa, where she dwelt. Fiordelisa came at last in sight, a grey, rambling, and ancient pile, set amidst cypress and ilex woods, with its gardens straying down into its farm-lands in Italian fashion, covering hills and plains with corn and vine and olive. A braw place this, but ill-kept, said the elder Miss Moira, as they entered a dark avenue of ancient oaks, and has the idolatrous emblems even at the very gatS he shut hr eyes not to seethe Pieta let into the wall under the woods, and kept them shut lest she should see any more such signs.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Book
