Excerpt from Found Wanting, Vol. 2 of 2: A Novel Having listened to a portion of Scripture, describing the satisfactory destruction of hostile tribes by the "chosen people, " and a prayer to correspond. May wished Miss Macallan good-night, and took an old-fashioned silver candletick, containing a rather greasy candle, from the hand of Jessie, the dim light of which made darkness barely visible as she ascended the dreary stairs. Her room, too, looked eerie, and the large four-post bed, the like of which she had never seen before, seemed positively fearsome. It was even a comfort to think Miss Macallan was next door to her, though May reflected that Miss Macallan in a night - cap and the probability that she wore one was strong - would be an awe-inspiring spectacle. The room, too, was curiously bare and bleak, though well furnished in all essentials. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
