Johnston, Mary: Foes. v1. 24 Feb 2014
Mary Johnston (November 21, 1870 – May 9, 1936) was an American novelist and women's rights advocate.
Excerpt Said Mother Binning: “Whiles I spin and whiles I dream. A bonny day like this I look.” English Strickland, tutor at Glenfernie House, looked, too, at the feathery glen, vivid in June sunshine. The ash-tree before Mother Binning’s cot overhung a pool of the little river. Below, the water brawled and leaped from ledge to ledge, but here at the head of the glen it ran smooth and still. A rose-bush grew by the door and a hen and her chicks crossed in the sun. English Strickland, who had been fishing, sat on the door-stone and talked to Mother Binning, sitting within with her wheel beside her.
