The Gully of Bluemansdyke, and Other stories

Paperback (Independently published Aug. 27, 2020)
"Broadhurst's store was closed, but the little back room looked very comfortable that night. The fire cast a ruddy glow on ceiling and walls, reflecting itself cheerily on the polished flasks and shot-guns which adorned them. Yet a gloom rest-ed on the two men who sat at either side of the hearth, which neither the fire nor the black bottle upon the table could alleviate."Twelve o'clock," said old Tom, the storeman glancing up at the wooden timepiece which had come out with him in '42. "It's a queer thing, George, they haven't come.""It's a dirty night," said his companion, reach-ing out his arm for a plug of tobacco. "The Wawirra's in flood, maybe; or maybe their horses is broke down; or they've put it off, perhaps. Great Lord, how it thunders! Pass us over a coal, Tom.""
