Excerpt from Schwartz, Vol. 2 of 2The Oak House was built for a mansion in the days of Queen Elizabeth, but who built it nobody knows at this time of day, or, except ing perhaps a hungry-minded antiquary or two, greatly cares to know. The place had been partly pulled down, and a good deal altered here and there. Stables, barns, cow-sheds, and such other outhouses as are needful to a farm had been tacked on to it, or built near it and all these appurtenances, under the mellowing hand of time and weather, had grown congruous, insomuch that the Oak House if stripped of them would have looked as bare even to the unaccustomed eye as a bird plucked of its feathers.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
