Excerpt from David Vallory David Vallory's train, to make which he had precipitately thrown down pencil and mapping-pen in the drafting room of the Government harbor-deepening project on the Florida coast two days earlier, was an hour late arriving at Middleboro, and in this first homecoming from the distant assignment, the aspect of things once so familiar seemed jarred a trifle out of focus. It was not that the June fields were less green, or the factory suburb through which the long train was slowing more littered and unsightly. But there was a change, and it was in a manner depressive. "Your home town?" inquired the traveler in the opposite half of the Pullman section, as Vallory began to assemble his various belongings. "Yes, " said David, adding, as if in some sort of justification: "I was born here in Middleboro." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
