Excerpt from Hugh Meredith: The Story of a Boy Who Conquered Circumstances by Knowing the Truth About Them When the sun, on its daily round, peeped into a back room of Mrs. Casey's boarding house, in a great western city, it brightened immeasurably a shabbily furnished room and seemed to touch with sympathetic warmth the small figure of a boy crouching dejectedly beside a bed on which lay the still form of his dearest and best friend, whose gentle spirit had slipped away so quietly that he did not know the moment of its passing. All through the long night he had sat beside the bed, in the eerie light of a single gas jet, now and then falling asleep and waking with a guilty start, but always with a hand resting on the bed so that the slightest movement of the tired little mother would waken him. Her only complaint for days had been that she was "so weary." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
