Old Mortality Volume 1 Chapter 8

from The Walter Scott Library Hosted by Sir Walter Scott

In which the rustic honesty and zeal of Mause and her son Cuddie bring them once more to seek employment under the roof of Milnwood, where hospitality is balanced with suspicion amidst the uneasy times. The sudden arrival of the king's troopers throws the household into turmoil, as loyal service and religious conviction collide with the heavy hand of authority and the sharp eye of suspicion.
