Excerpt from The Mayor of Troy SO I could tell with circumstance when, where and how I first proposed my treatise and will, perhaps, when I have concluded it. But life is short; and for the while my readers may be amused with an instalment. N ow of all the Mayors of Cornwall the one who most engaged my speculation, yet for a long while baffled all research, was the Mayor of Troy, so popular that the town made him ex-mayor the year following. Of course, if you don't know Troy, you will miss half the reason of my eagerness. Simple, egregious, adorable town Shall I go on here to Sing its praises No not yet.

Excerpt from In the Mayor's Parlour Under the graceful cupola and the flying buttresses of High Cross the countryfolk still expose for sale on market-days their butter and their eggs around the base of the slender Shaft called Low Cross they still offer their poultry and rabbits on other than market days High Cross and Low Cross alike make central, open-air clubs, for the patriarchs of the place, who there assemble in the lazy afternoons and still lazier eventides, to gossip over the latest items of local news; conscious that as they are doing so their ancestors have done for many a generation, and that old as they may be themselves, in their septuagenarian or octogenarian states, they are as infants in com parison with the age of the stones and bricks and timbers about them, grey and fragrant with the antiquity of at least three hundred years.

Excerpt from The Third Miss. Symons Miss Mayor's story is of a delicate quality, not common here, though occurring at intervals, and always sure of a choice, if not very large, audience among those who like in art the refined movement and the gentle line. Her subject, like her method, is one not commonly chosen by women writers; it is simply the life of an unmarried idle woman of the last generation, a life (to some eyes) of wasted leisure and deep futility, but common enough, and getting from its permitted commonness a justification from life, who is wasteful but roughly just. Miss Mayor tells this story with singular skill, more by contrast than by drama, bringing her chief character into relief against her world, as it passes in swift procession.

Excerpt from The Mayor of Warwick He would see, perhaps, that Only one side of the quadrangle was built, one fourth of the work done. Here, along the northern line, should be the chapel, its altar window facing the east on the southern, the dining-hall, adorned with rafters of dark oak and with portraits of the Wise and great. To complete the plan, the remaining gap must be closed by a hall similar in style to the one already built.
