Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Wood engraving illustration for Chapter 3 of "Son Christopher" in Once a Week magazine, Volume 9, page 519. The novella is set in 1685. In this scene, constables search the house of a Puritan family looking for evidence of opposition to the Catholic king. A child is trying to shut out the harassment by immersing herself in a book (it is Pilgrim's Progress); the woman on the right, a visitor who is not a Puritan, tells the constables not to read her letters (she expects to be heeded because her brother is Sheriff).
