Excerpt from The World DestroyerAh, I remember that night well, when it all happened' It was a time When we entertained at our house, and Alice Winship and I were to announce our engagement. I had secretly seen that all our closest friends were gath ered there; and we were to hold high revelry. Then I discovered that the man of all men, to whom I wished to announce the engagement, was not present. Telephone connections were cut off from his club, but it being only a short distance away, I put on my great coat to step over there.I might have known that something would happen from the very nature of the night.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
