But her situation was extremely painful, and many openly sympathized with Antony. "To leave such a bit o' property as Hallam to a lass!" was against every popular tradition and feeling. Antony was regarded as a wronged man; and Richard as a plotting interloper, who added to all his other faults the unpardonable one of being a foreigner, "with a name that no Yorkshireman iver did hev?" This public sympathy, which he could see in every face and feel in every hand-shake, somewhat consoled Antony for the indifference his wife manifested on the subject.

Autorenporträt
Amelia Edith Huddleston Barr was a British novelist and teacher, born on March 29, 1831, in Ulverston, United Kingdom. She is known for her novels, many of which are set in Scotland and England, drawing heavily from her childhood experiences and the landscapes that shaped her early life. Barr's writing career began after her move to the United States, where she eventually settled. Throughout her life, she balanced her passion for writing with her role as a teacher, influencing both her literary works and her interactions with students. Barr's novels are often characterized by their vivid descriptions of rural life, complex characters, and strong emotional undercurrents. Her works are a reflection of her keen observations of the world around her, particularly concerning relationships, moral dilemmas, and the changing social and political landscapes of the time. She passed away on March 10, 1919, in Richmond Hill, New York, at the age of 87. Her daughter, Mary Barr Munroe, survived her. Barr's works, though not as widely known today, played an important role in the literary scene of her time, and her stories remain a valuable window into 19th-century life.
