Excerpt from How Deacon Tubman and Parson Whitney Kept New Year's and Other StoriesI say Deacon Tubman bounced into his trousers, but, to be exact, I should say that he bounced into half of them; and, with the other half trailing be hind him, he skipped to the window and, putting his little, plump, round face almost against the pane, gazed out upon the world. Everything was bright, sparkling and cold, for the earth was cov ered with snow and the clear gray of the early morning spread its rayless illumination over the great dome, in the fading blue of which a few starry points still gleamed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
