The Autumn People

This follows the formula that two other Ruth M. Arthur books I've read dealt with a previous ancestor that influences a person currently living.  Both girls are named Romilly although the earlier one went by the name of Millie.  Millie was in love with a good boy named Jocelyn, but an evil warlock Rodger, unfortunately, gets her interest more.  He could be casting a spell on her?  Rodger also bugs the current Romilly as he starts following her around as a fox. One reviewer on Goodreads pointed out that the nature of evil wasn't really discussed enough here.  Arthur did a more thorough job on that in A Candle in her room.
