The Widow's Dog

The Widow's Dog is a lovely and romantic tale about an old widow who lives alone with her dog, Chloe. Excerpt: «One of the most beautiful spots in the north of Hampshire—a part of the country which, from its winding green lanes, with the trees meeting overhead like a cradle, its winding roads between coppices, with wide turfy margins on either side, as if left on purpose for the picturesque and frequent gypsy camp, its abundance of hedgerow timber, and its extensive tracts of woodland, seems as if the fields were just dug out of the forest, as might have happened in the days of William Rufus—one of the loveliest scenes in this lovely county is the Great Pond at Ashley End.»
