The Marquis of Lossie Chapter 1 - The Stable-Yard
In which a young man, Malcolm Colonsay, tends to a tempestuous black mare in the ancient stable-yard of Lossie House, whose weather-worn stones and time-honoured clock mark the slow passage of venerable days; a stern and worldly factor arrives to advise the sale of the dangerous creature, but Malcolm, mindful of honesty and affection, resists with quiet defiance. The discourse, touched with humour and a sharp sense of justice, reveals the simple yet proud spirit of one who honours the legacy entrusted to him, even amidst warnings and threats.
