Legends of the Province House is a collection of short stories written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, originally published in 1838. The stories are set in the Province House, a historic building in Boston that was once the residence of colonial governors. Hawthorne's tales explore the history and legends surrounding the Province House, weaving together fact and fiction to create a haunting and atmospheric portrait of the building and its inhabitants. The stories range from the tragic tale of Lady Eleanore's Mantle, to the eerie legend of the Three Notch'd Road, to the ghostly presence that haunts the building's halls. Through these stories, Hawthorne explores themes of history, memory, and the supernatural, creating a vivid and haunting portrait of colonial New England.The ship in which she came passenger had arrived at Newport, whence Lady Eleanore was conveyed to Boston in the Governor's coach, attended by a small escort of gentlemen on horseback. The ponderous equipage, with its four black horses, attracted much notice as it rumbled through Cornhill, surrounded by the prancing steeds of half a dozen cavaliers, with swords dangling to their stirrups and pistols at their holsters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
