The Bar-Maid by Adelaide Anne Procter - Full Audiobook | Short Story

A full unabridged audiobook of the classic short story, "The Bar-Maid", by Adelaide Anne Procter - complete with sounds and visuals.
The fifth part of The Holly-Tree Inn is a poem told to our narrator by the bar-maid of the inn. The story revolves around a young man who falls in love with a visitor to the inn on horseback. As he catches glimpses of her in the following years, he slowly sees her life slipping away and realises that nobody can appreciate her beauty in quite the same way that he can.
The The Holly-Tree Inn is a collection of short stories, published as the second volume of A Child's History of England and Miscellaneous Pieces. The Holly-Tree Inn was originally published in the Christmas 1855 edition of Household Words.
There is some evidence that Dickens only wrote three of the sections and the framing story; the other sections are purportedly attributed as follows: "The Ostler", Wilkie Collins; "The Landlord", William Howitt; "The Barmaid" Adelaide Anne Procter; "The Poor Pensioner", Holme Lee.
Dickens began a tradition of Christmas publications with "A Christmas Carol" in 1843 and his Christmas stories soon became a national institution.

Ah ok. So all titles recorded have to be in the public domain which means their author died over 70 years ago. I’m hopefully going to be recording a Joan of Arc history before too long!
