Opis: Little Miss. Melody (Classic Reprint) - Keith Marian

Excerpt from Little Miss. Melody

The village that stood on Cherry Hill was half a mile in length and some twenty rods wide. It consisted of a single street, stretching in a straight, white, tree-shaded line, from the Presbyterian Church on the West to the old Bradley Hotel, which marked the extreme East End. It was quite the prettiest village in Ontario; a little garden community set in the centre of a wide garden valley. An ambitious and progressive spirit in the inhabitants had added much to nature's gifts. If you lived in Cherry Hill, and your neighbour bought a new pump or an up-to-date lightning-rod for his barn, or a fashionable style of wire fencing for his lot, then it became necessary that you get a larger and redder pump, several newer lightning-rods, and a more ornamental fencing for your frontage. So when old Wellington Caldwell, who used to be gardener to a Duke or something of that sort in the Old Country, planted mountain ash trees along the front of his lot, and laid out a smooth lawn, and trained climbing roses all over his veranda, and took to raising an acre or so of flowers - immediately all Cherry Hill burst out into a glory of mountain ash trees, lawns, climbing roses and flower gardens.
