Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Chronicles of St. Tid
We was always very proud of our church at St. Luce's. 'tis a little, old church town a few mile from St. Tid, where the slate quarries gape in the midst of the earth but St. Tid's church be a thing of yesterday, whereas ours of St. Luce dates back to the times of the Seventh Henry, or some such far-away age as that. 'twas a funny old place, and stories was still handed down about it, and one fine yarn reported that a very rich and rare treasure had been hid in the church and, of course, nobody could say it wasn't true.
But you must hear the tale because the strange story I am going to tell you hangs thereon. In fact, they be one, in a manner of speaking, and if it hadn't been for the first, the second could never have fallen out.
