The Black Dwarf Chapter Ten
from The Walter Scott Library Hosted by Sir Walter Scott
In which honest Hobbie Elliot returns to his humbled family cottage with the rescued Grace Armstrong, striving to reconcile their dire losses with steadfast hope and filial love amid the austere Border moors; and in a moment of bold resolve, he seeks out the grim and mysterious Elshie of Mucklestane for aid, confronting the shadowy reputation of the recluse with the straightforwardness of a sincere, if wary, believer. The dawn reveals uncanny sights and a reluctant generosity, as Hobbie endeavours to secure a future for his kin by embracing both natural and supernatural means, with the quiet determination of a Borderer who will not easily yield to despair.
