Excerpt from The Old Cobblestone House: A Ghost Story
There was no path leading from the old cobblestone house to the road, but there was a well-trodden runway between the old home and the family burial ground. The front yard had become a thicket of lilac bushes and of sprouts from the tall old locust trees, defying entrance to all humankind. Wandering grapevines and woodbine climbed over the moss covered roof up to the chimneys at the gable ends, going even into the garret through broken windowpanes. This wild patch was naturally on its way back to forest.
On the afternoon that Miss Katherine Springer stood in front of the Corvine homestead, looking for the gap in the high box-hedge, it was blossoming-time in May, and the old house nestled in the very heart of Springtime. But there was no sign of welcome about the familiar old place for her.
