A gentle breeze, however, now arose, as the sun was about descending; and while I remained standing on the brow of the slope, the fog gradually became dissipated into wreaths, and so floated over the scene. He is seen today as one of the greatest practitioners of Gothic and detective fiction that ever lived, and popular culture is replete with references to him.

The roofs of the two larger were very steep—sweeping down from the ridge–beam with a long concave curve, and extending at least four feet beyond the walls in front, so as to form the roofs of two piazzas.

At right angles to these buildings, and from the rear of the main one - not exactly in the middle - extended a third compartment, very small - being, in general, one-third less than the western wing.

The door itself had its upper half of glass, also in lozenge panes—a movable shutter secured it at night.Excellent paths of the same material - not nicely adapted, but with the velvety sod filling frequent intervals between the stones, led hither and thither from the house, to a crystal spring about five paces off, to the road, or to one or two out - houses that lay to the north, beyond the brook, and were thoroughly concealed by a few locusts and catalpas.
