Hey Rhiannon
''Witches, and ghosts, and village legends, though the belief in them may still linger in remote parishes, are becoming, as the old man at Rollright said, less cared for and will soon be things of the past. But are the thoughts, and the interests, and the beliefs that are rising up in their place calculated to advance the morality and the religion of the labouring classes? I fear not''.
Eerily insightful. And absolutely relevant today! Where'd you find the quote? I'm interested to know what the letter in context of.
