Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Lucky Stone
Our ?ights up the rickety tenement staircase was a little room with the door shut tight. The key was turned in the keyhole on the outside. From inside came the sound of sobbing for any one to hear. But there was no one to hear; every one was too busy indoors or out on this beautiful June day. Every one who had work to do was doing it, over the hot stove, or at the shop or fac tory. The free children were romping or tum bling about in the alley; for this was Saturday morning, and there was no school. Saturday morning in June! That suggests all sorts of pleasant things: parks, and ?owers, and 5 excursions on the water; birds, and green grass.
