40 Roanoke of Roanoke Hall. Of my journey as far as Winchester I need not speak at length. My guardian was rough but kindly, being a cloth merchant having business in those parts. I parted with. him beneath the shadow of the cathedral in the city to which he was bound, and have never encountered him since. Thence I set out to journey still further southward, with nothing but my own witand courage to protect me from the dangers that might lurk upon the road. comichbooks.com
