Summary "Miles Lawson; or, The Yews" by Mrs. W. Reynolds Lloyd is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story centers around the Lawson family, particularly the son, Miles, and his relationship with his widowed mother and sister, Alice, set against the backdrop of rural Westmoreland. The narrative explores themes of duty, family ties, and the struggle between good and evil as Miles faces moral challenges in a changing world. The opening of the novel establishes a vivid and picturesque setting of the Lawson homestead, affectionately known as "The Yews," which is characterized by its beautiful yew trees and the warmth of the family’s kitchen. It introduces key characters including Mrs. Lawson, who embodies wisdom and piety, and her children, Miles, Alice, and young Mat, who exhibit strong family bonds amidst their daily routines. However, an air of foreboding hangs over Miles as he becomes embroiled with dubious companions, raising concerns among his family about his choices and potential dangers. Through this detailed introduction, the novel sets the stage for forthcoming conflicts and the exploration of moral and familial themes. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
