About this book

The White Lady of Hazelwood, with the subtitle A Tale of the Fourteenth Century, is a work by Emily Sarah Holt. The preface says that on the crowded canvas of the fourteenth century stands out as one of its most prominent figures that of the warrior Countess of Montfort. The preface asks "What became of her?" and says that after the restoration of her son, we see no more of that brave and tender mother.

A character named Clement says the show shall be the richest and rarest seen this many a day. Alexandra asks Clem to tell all about the jousting and to win good places to see the same, promising a chowet-pie of the best. A character named Agatha says "I thought Father Jordan was a-coming; it was he I wanted." The text says the Duke did sufficient justice to the collation and demanded, if it must be, to be taken to his mother at once.
