A Story of '67 (Classic Reprint) Excerpt from The Graves at Kilmorna: A Story of '67On a certain summer evening in the year 1866, a number of schoolboys, of different ages, were playing cricket along a smooth crease that was worn out of the rough ground behind the market-place in a certain Midland town. The sun was setting, and it threw the high walls of the market-place in long shadows across the ground, whilst it lit up the magnificent foliage of the trees that filled and crowned the glen beyond the river. In these shadows, a young man was walking up and down, now reading closely from a book which he held near to his eyes, now glancing away from the book to the boys at play, and seeming to look at them with eyes of pity, whilst he enjoyed their shrill shouts, and all the exuberance and glory of their untamed animal spirits. From the town that was hidden in a hollow beneath them, came shouts and cheers from time to time, at which the boys paused from their play, as if doubting whether they were not losing some fun; and then went on, batting and bowling, as if their games were a more serious attraction.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
