Excerpt: "In der Mitte der Haupt­stra­ße von High­mar­ket stand eine wuch­ti­ge, mas­si­ve Tor­fahrt, die noch aus dem Mit­tel­al­ter stamm­te. Wenn man hin­durch­ging, kam man auf einen qua­dra­ti­schen Hof, zu des­sen Sei­ten sich alte Stein­häu­ser er­ho­ben. Wel­cher Be­stim­mung die­se Ge­bäu­de frü­her ge­dient hat­ten, war nicht mehr zu er­ken­nen, jetzt wur­de hier ein Bau­ge­schäft be­trie­ben. Gro­ße Sta­pel nor­we­gi­schen Hol­zes türm­ten sich an der Mau­er; Schie­fer­plat­ten aus Wa­les, Mar­mor­stu­fen aus Aber­de­en und Ze­ment von Port­land la­ger­ten hier in Men­gen. Die Räu­me der Ge­bäu­de wa­ren mit al­len mög­li­chen Ma­te­ria­li­en ge­füllt, die zum Haus­bau be­nö­tigt wur­den: Tür- und Fens­ter­be­schlä­ge aus Ei­sen und Bron­ze, Zink, Blei, Dach­zie­gel, Röh­ren und alle Be­darfs­ar­ti­kel, die die mo­der­ne Tech­nik da­für ge­schaf­fen hat­te. Auf ei­ner po­lier­ten Mes­sing­plat­te am Ein­gang konn­te man den Na­men der Fir­ma le­sen: Mal­la­lieu & Co­ther­sto­ne, Bau­ge­schäft."

    Excerpt: "The railway station stood in the midst of an apparent solitude, and from its one long platform there was no sign of any human habitation. A stranger, looking around him in passing that way, might well have wondered why a station should be found there at all; nevertheless, the board which figured prominently above the white palings suggested the near presence of three ...

We have brought into being more than one periodical publication full of gossip about the private life and affairs of folk of eminence, and there are too many of us who are never so much pleased as when we are i...

    Excerpt: "American tourists, sure appreciators of all that is ancient and picturesque in England, invariably come to a halt, holding their breath in a sudden catch of wonder, as they pass through the half-ruinous gateway which admits to the Close of Wrychester. Nowhere else in England is there a fairer prospect of old-world peace. There before their eyes, set in the centre of a...
