Excerpt from The Redemption of Kenneth Galt His gaze was drawn perforce to the face of the young organist, who sat staring listlessly over the top of her hymn-book. She had a face and form of rare beauty and grace. Her features were most regular; her skin clear; her eyes were large, long-lashed, dreamy, and of the color of violets. Her hair was a living mass of silken bronze. She looks tired and worried, was Dearing's half professional comment. Perhaps her mother is worse, and she sat up last night. Poor Dora! She has certainly had a lot to contend with since her father died. I'll wait for her after church and ask about her mother. The service over, he made his way through the throng down the aisle toward the door. He was quite popular, and there was many a hand to shake and many a warm greeting to respond to, but he finally succeeded in reach ing a point in the shaded church-yard which Dora Barry would pass on her way home, and there he waited.

The Redemption of Kenneth Galt is a romantic fiction set in Georgia by American author William Nathaniel Harben. Harben portrayed the mountaineers of his native north Georgia with realistic colors in the novel. He specialized in stories about the people of the mountains of Northern Georgia and often included lavish descriptions of their beauty. His sharp, honest observations of the speech, traditions, wisdom, and values of north Georgia mountaineers were a prominent contribution to the literature of the American South. Excerpt from The Redemption of Kenneth Galt "YOUNG Doctor Dearing sat in the little church at an open window through which he had a partial view of that portion of old Stafford which stretched out desultorily toward the east. Immediately in front was a common fairly well covered with grass and weeds, except at the pawed and beaten spot where the public hitched its riding-horses, and beyond stood rows of old-fashioned residences of brick and stone, interspersed with a few modern frame cottages which, in gaudy paint, thrust themselves nearer the street than their more stately neighbors."

A wonderfully told tale of love and romance, and heartbreak and futility. It's a love triangle with others meddling into the affairs of the lovers, with disastrous consequences, sort of.
