Excerpt from TimberA white Florida moon hung low over the river, flanked, for Luke Taylor and his son John, by a yellow pine and a moss-bearded oak. The night was mild and young John was dressed in summer clothing, but Luke sat drawn into his mink-lined overcoat, as if the outlook from the wide verandah of his winter home were of the bleak north instead of the edge of the tropics. His withered hands lay on the arm of the wicker chair and his cold eyes stared straight before him.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Her manner was very positive. "Nothing else?" he demanded. She looked down and shook her head. "Nothing else, Milt. You should know that. You have tried to persuade me to think--differently of you. It--it has made it very hard for me, because I don't want to hurt you,--and I can't--" "And yet you'll run around with this--this--" gesturing toward the men's shanty. "Which is my own affair," she said simply. "I'm sorry, but there must be a limit to what I let you say."

His heart was racing, hot words of jealousy clamored to be out, but he repressed them, and searching wildly for some device which would grip her interest and give him different standing in her eyes, he threw out that empty threat.
