简介:The dreary March evening is rapidly passing from murky gloom to obscurity.  Gusts of icy rain and sleet are sweeping full against a man who, though driving, bows his head so low that he cannot see his horses.  The patient beasts, however, plod along the miry road, unerringly taking their course to the distant stable door.  The highway sometimes passes through a grove on the edge of a forest, and the trees creak and groan as they writhe in the heavy blasts.  In occasional groups of pines there is sighing and moaning almost human in suggestiveness of trouble.  Never had Nature been in a more dismal mood, never had she been more prodigal of every element of discomfort, and never had the hero of my story been more cast down in heart and hope than on this chaotic day which, even to his dull fancy, appeared closing in harmony with his feelings and fortune.  He is going home, yet the thought brings no assurance of welcome and comfort.  As he cowers upon the seat of his market wagon, he is to the reader what he is in the fading light--a mere dim outline of a man.  His progress is so slow that there will be plenty of time to relate some facts about him which will make the scenes and events to follow more intelligible.
