Excerpt from The Other House
T was a little Old-fashioned, quiet town; a town that had apparently fallen asleep in the warm sunshine of a drowsy summer day, long, long years ago, and never had the vitality to wake up. It was vertebrate in so far as its one shaded avenue went with a few unimportant streets, by way Of ribs, running from it, and a quiet villa or two on the ex treme outskirts, that made up a tolerably respect able body.
