The Weird O' It
Excerpt from The Weird O' It
As he uttered this vow, a shout of laughter from the four children below was instantly followed by a crackling outbreak Of thunder over Corrie Crags to the north-west and the storm, which all day had brooded, was come.
His voluntary promise before Heaven was to be put to the test - that night.
