Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Mistress of Brae Farm: A Novel 'Tranquillity is a good thing.' - Periander. 'Misfortunes are common to all.' - Phocylides. The young mistress of Brae Farm was looking over the little green gate that divided the garden from the big farmyard. It was still early in the afternoon, and there was a hush and stillness over the whole place as though a universal siesta prevailed. Presently from the long green meadow the cows would come slowly in single file to the milking-shed, and later on the cart-horses clattering heavily down the lane on their way to the pond. The turkeys and geese and even the cocks and hens were all afield, only the pigeons eat in rows on the red roof of the granary sunning themselves in the sweet May sunshine; and the sole occupants of the farmyard below were an old grey pony with paniers, dozing peacefully with his feet embedded in the clean yellow straw, and an infant asleep in one of the paniers. 'Mattie Renshawe come for some more new-laid eggs, ' observed Ellison to herself, but she spoke aloud, for the fine collie sitting erect beside her uttered a low whine of pleasure at his mistress's voice. ' Hush, Bairn, we must not wake the baby!' and the dog was at once silent, as though he understood her, and then he and his mistress resumed their quiet watching. Some one once remarked that if he were asked who was the most contented woman he had ever known, he should name Ellison Lee.
