Excerpt from Mockery: A Tale of Deceptions
Leeness-on-Solway, quaintest village of a district where everything is quaint and slow and somewhat harsh and very primitive, passed imperceptibly from a sleepy day to a yet sleepier evening. Its winding cobbled streets had some time ceased to echo to the last cart lurching homeward from the fields. A summer breeze from the frith stirred the tree-tops in the Rectory garden, and provoked the colony of rooks to dispirited protest. The June sun lengthened and deepened the shadows. And the air was full of the scent of lilac and the droning hum of bees. And down the centre of the principal street tramped two men, bearing between them a small American organ cased in shiny oil-cloth.
One of the men was middle-aged and was dressed in brown. The other was young and was dressed in black. The middle-aged man plodded - a trifle wearily, perhaps; he was a palish, thinnish man with high cheekbones, fair hair, and a face devoid certainly of all expression, yet suggestive somehow of a hidden sense of wry and melancholy humour.
