The view was an extensive one,when the weather was clear. Away to the left lay the pine forestsof Bournemouth and Christ Church and, still farther seaward, thecliffs of the Isle of Wight, from Totland Bay as far as SaintCatherine Point. Close at hand to the south was Studland Bay,bounded by Handfast Point. Looking towards the right was a greatsheet of shallow water, for the most part dry at low tide, known asPoole and Wareham Harbours, with its numerous creeks and bays.Netherstock was an old house, with many nooks and corners. Thesquire was a justice of the peace but, unless there was somespecial business on, he seldom took his place on the bench. He wasa jovial man, who took life easily. He was popular among hisneighbours, especially among the poorer classes; for whom he hadalways a pleasant word, as he rode along; and who, in case ofillness, knew that they could always be sure of a supply of soup,or a gill of brandy at Netherstock.
