I found that even atthese modest prices I had paid too much. Oaken furniture was common inthese parts, and had little value. When a church was restored, or anold house re-constructed, large quantities of old oak were literallythrown away. Thus, at a merely nominal expense I acquired enoughcarved oak to fit together into a handsome fireplace, and later on thepews of a church came in for oak panelling. Let me now picture my living-room as it was about four months after Itook possession. It was en...tirely oak panelled to a height of ninefeet, above which about a foot of white-washed wall showed, forming aplain frieze. The fireplace at one end of the room was built in withcarved oak; what had been the corresponding fireplace at the other endof the room was turned into a cupboard, with plain oak doors. The roomhad three old-fashioned leaded windows opening outward. Two wereoriginal, one had been added--the centre window taking the place of thegap left by the destroyed partition wall. My oak chests, dresser andcupboard, constituted the furniture of the room.
