The time has now come for giving
you a clearer idea of this especial
neighborhood. Judge ostrander's
house, situated at the juncture of an
unimportant road with the main high
way, had in its real three small
houses, two of them let and one still
unrented. Farther on, but on the OPP
posite side of the way, stood a very
old dwelling, in which there lived and
presumably worked a solitary woman,
the sole and final survivor of a large
family. Beyond was the ravine, cut
ting across the road and terminating
it. This ravine merits some descrip-
ton.
1t was a picturesque addition to the
town through which it cut at the point
of greatest activity. With the various
bridges connecting the residence por-
ton with the lower business streets
we have nothing to do. But there was
a nearer one, of which the demands of
this story necessitate a clear presenta-
ton.
