[EAN: 9781494961657], Neubuch, [PU: Createspace, United States], Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Up the crooked street which curves for three miles around the harbor comes the sound of the Towncrier s bell. It seems strange that he should happen along this morning, just as I ve seated myself by this garret window to begin the story of my life, for it was the sound of his bell five years ago which first put it into my head to write it. And yet, it isn t so strange after all, when one remembers the part the dear old man has had in my past. Uncle Darcy, as I ve always called him, has been mixed up with most of its important happenings. That day, when I first thought of writing my memoirs, was in Spring house-cleaning time, and I had been up here all morning, watching them drag out old heirlooms from the chests and cubby-holes under the rafters. Each one had a history. From one of the gable windows I could look down on the beach at the very spot where the Pilgrims first landed, and away over on the tongue of sand, which ends the Cape, I could see the place where they say the old Norse Viking, Thorwald, was buried nine hundred years ago.<
