Excerpt from Jack Archer: A Tale of the CrimeaThe first day of term cannot be considered a cheerful occasion. As the boys arrive on the previous evening, they have so much to tell each other, are so full of what they have been doing, that the chatter and laughter are as great as upon the night preceding the breaking-up. In the morning, however, all this is changed. As they take their places at their desks and Open their books, a dull, heavy feeling takes possession of the boys, and the full consciousness that they are at the beginning of another half year's work weighs heavily on their minds.It is true enough that the half year will have its play, too, its matches, with their rivalry and excite ment. But at present it is the long routine of lessons which is most prominent in the minds of the lads who are sitting on the long benches Of the King's School, Canterbury.As a whole, however, these have not great reason for sadness. Not more than a third of them are boarders, and the rest, who have in truth, for the last week, begun to be tired of their holidays, will, when they once get out of School, and begin to choose sides for football, be really glad that the term has again commenced.So your brother is not coming back again, Archer? One of the boys said to a lad of some fifteen years Old, a merry, curly-haired fellow, some what short for his age, but square-shouldered and sturdy.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
