Miss Winbolt And The Fortune Hunter (2008) - Plot & Excerpts
With seven younger brothers and sisters at home she was well used to handling children, and she also proved to have a talent for teaching. The old school room at Shearings was brought back into use, and James and Laura quite happily spent two or three hours in it every morning with Miss Anstey. And when Emily was otherwise occupied they were perfectly content to go for walks with her in the afternoon, too. But, on the afternoon when Mrs Fenton was due to call, Miss Anstey was not required. William, Emily and the children had left Shearings and set off for Charlwood well before two o’clock. It had rained during the morning, but by the time they reached Charlwood the sun was shining. The children demanded to see the Dower House, and, in spite of some doubt on Emily’s part, William wanted them to see for them selves how hopeless it was to think of living there. So they stopped to call on George Fowler, who now occupied the lodge, and to visit the ruins. The Dower House was a pathetic sight, its ravages cruelly exposed in the bright sunshine.
