Barclay, Florence L: The Rosary. V1. 16 Oct 2010
Florence Louisa Barclay (2 December 1862 – 10 March 1921) was an English romance novelist and short story writer.
Excerpt A wag had once remarked that if you met her Grace of Meldrum returning from gardening or feeding her poultry, and were in a charitable frame of mind, you would very likely give her sixpence. But, after you had thus drawn her attention to yourself and she looked at you, Sir Walter Raleigh's cloak would not be in it! Your one possible course would be to collapse into the mud, and let the ducal "gouties" trample on you. This the duchess would do with gusto; then accept your apologies with good nature; and keep your sixpence, to show when she told the story.
