Author Description

Excerpt from The Deemster a Romance, Vol. 3 of 3 It was a foul and loathsome dungeon, and never but once had Bishop Mylrea been known to use it. Dark, small, damp, entered by a score of narrow steps, down under the vaults on the oor of the chapel, over the long runnels made in the rock by the sea, it was as vile a hole as the tyranny of the Church ever turned into a gaol for the punish ment of those who resisted its authority.
