| | Crosbie Garstin |
 | | He wrote poetry, contributed to Punch and other papers, and had brought out two or three novels, the best known of which bears the title of 'The Owl's House', This is an exciting romance of a previous generation, the scene of which is this very neighbourhood of Lamorna. |
 | | My wife had known Crosbie from the time he was a little boy, and she was an old friend and pupil of his father, Norman Garstin, a painter and teacher of painting, a kindly, broad-minded man if ever there was one. |
 | | To return to Garstin; He gave me good advice as to the publication of a story of mine, the same that Lauremce Housman wrote an Introduction to, and which was one of the causes which led to my own introduction to my then neighbour, Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch. |
