Holmes - Guardian Angel." - [[H.P. Lovecraft]], "[[Commonplace Book (fiction)]]"
 :"Witches' Hollow novel? Man hired as teacher in private school road on first trip - encounters dark hollow with unnaturally swollen trees and small cottage (light in window?).

Lovecraft]], "[[Commonplace Book (fiction)]]"
