A Tillyloss Scandal - Classic Reprint Author:J. M. Barrie CHAPTER I. IN WHICH WE APPROACH HAGGART, HAT IN HAND. ACCORDING to those ,who have thought the thing over, it would defy the face of clay to set forth this prodigious affair of Tillyloss, the upshot of which was that Tammas Haggart became a humorist. It happened so far back as the Long Year, so called by reason of disease in the potato crop; and... more » doubtless the house, which still stands, derides romance to those who cavil at an outside stair. Furthermore, the many who only knew Haggart in his later years, whether personally or through written matter or from Thrums folk who have traveled, will not readily admit that he may once have been an every-day man.
