Mary Lyndon An Autobiography PDF Download

Excerpt from Mary Lyndon, or Revelations of a Life: An Autobiography That grove, spared by the men of Greenwood because it bore something good to eat, is very beautiful - more beautiful by its contrast with the surrounding ugliness. In the cold winter the trees shield the hamlet from the force of fierce winds in sum mer the children play in the cool shade and in autumn there is great glee among the young people, when the first frost has brought down the brown, shining chestnuts, and they lay in bushels on the ground. One bright autumn day, a group of children were picking nuts in the grove. A happy, romping girl, with radiant curls falling all over her shoulders, and with her white frock soiled and torn and her chip hat in her hand with but one string, rises before me on the dark background of the past. She is standing on a rock, pouting her full, loving lip, and turning a fold over a rent in her soiled frock.
