| In the early years of this century, such a linen-weaver, named Silas Marner, worked at his vocation in a stone cottage that stood among the nutty hedgerows near the village of Raveloe, and not far from the edge of a deserted stone-pit. Silas Deemer died on the 16th day of July, 1863, and two days later his remains were buried. Says your uncle Silas is like a changed man, on account of all this quarreling. |
