Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Popular Tales, Vol. 2
Near Derby, on the way towards Darley grove, there is a cottage which formerly belonged to one Maurice Robinson. The jessamine which now covers the porch was planted by Ellen his wife: she was an industrious, prudent young woman liked by all her neighbours, because she was ready to assist and serve them, and the delight of her husband's heart; for she was sweet tempered, affectionate, constantly clean and neat, and made his house so cheerful that he was always in haste to come home to her, after his day's work. He was one of the manufacturers em ployed in the cotton works at Derby; and be was remarkable for his good conduct and regular attendance at his work.
