From Tom's Desk- Looking Back 1/27/15

“Winters in Arundel and all our Eastern country lie hard and burdensome on idle folk.  There are heavy skies and spittings of snow in November, a weighty fall or two in December, and through January and February and March enough snow and ice and bitter wind to make the devil himself press close up to the flames of hell, and still feel a chill on the side removed from the fire.”  Kenneth Roberts in “Arundel”
