The Water Pitcher

Paperback (Forgotten Books Feb. 2, 2018)
Excerpt from The Water PitcherFashion of the last century. On Sundays his usual dress was a large, round, uno powdered wig, a neckcloth of the finest white linen, a frock of cinnamon brown, cut in the old fashion, with large buttons covered with gold lace. The same taste was visible in his house. The furniture of the chambers, the tapestry, the frames of the pictures and mirrors, tables, chairs and sideboard, were all of costly material, but entirely of the old fashion. The writing desk of walnut, with its old drawers, was the very one which had been used by his grandfather, and the cumbrous arm-chair still held the place it had held three gene rations before.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
