Description

pubOne.info thank you for your continued support and wish to present you this new edition.

I never could understand why anybody should ever have begun to live at Dillsborough, or why the population there should have been at any time recruited by new comers.

That a man with a family should cling to a house in which he has once established himself is intelligible.

The butcher who supplied Dillsborough, or the baker, or the ironmonger, though he might not drive what is called a roaring trade, nevertheless found himself probably able to live, and might well hesitate before he would encounter the dangers of a more energetic locality.

But how it came to pass that he first got himself to Dillsborough, or his father, or his grandfather before him, has always been a mystery to me.

The town has no attractions, and never had any. It does not stand on a bed of coal and has no connection with iron.

It has no water peculiarly adapted for beer, or for dyeing, or for the cure of maladies.

It is not surrounded by beauty of scenery strong enough to bring tourists and holiday travellers.

There is no cathedral there to form, with its bishops, prebendaries, and minor canons, the nucleus of a clerical circle
