Mr. Gibson’s new work is a tragic drama in blank verse, concerned with
three generations of a family of Northumbrian shepherds. The title,
‘Krindlesyke,’ is taken from the name of the lonely cottage on the fells
where they live and the incidents of the story pass.

While ‘Krindlesyke’ is not in dialect, it has been flavoured with a
sprinkling of local words; but as these are, for the most part, words
expressive of emotion, rather than words conveying information, the
