Dorothy Manley has made the narrator of her collection, 'Fairy's Ground : Homely Tales', a young man. In the first story, 'The Chimney-Sweep', he was a young lad. The second story, 'The Farmer', has taken us forward by seven years, and the narrator is training to be a teacher - which he has become by the time of the third story, 'The Lawyer'.

Professor Van Helsing tells of how he, Arthur Holmwood (Lord Godalming) and Quincey Morris managed to trace the identity of the boat on which Count Dracula has left London bound for his castle in Transylvania. He obviously enjoys giving an account of what the men on the wharf had to say about how the Count came to go on board. An episode from our Manx translation of Bram Stoker's 'Dracula'.
