She was truest to them in the season of trial, as all the quietly loyal and good will always be.
- Charles Dickens
Of all the ruinous and desolate places my uncle had ever beheld, this was the most so. It looked as if it had once been a large house of entertainment; but the roof had fallen in, in many places, and the stairs were steep, rugged, and broken.

The white feathery dust of burnt wood was still strewed over the hearth, but the stove was cold, and all was dark and gloomy.
