Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Widow's Son: A Story of Jewish Life of the Past
But not alone was the castle in its still, cold majesty a contrast to the village; it also suffered from a like evil, for directly opposite it, with only the length of the village between, was another hill. This also bore a burden on its back - white stones, like those of which the castle was built, but they were tomb-stones, numerous and mostly weather-beaten, half sunken and decayed, as was the whole village. It must have been that many people died, or that the graveyard was very old, for the hill down nearly into the valley was wholly covered with them.
