Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from How a Dead Man Was Drawn From His Tomb and Back Again to Life
There once upon a time was in the U. S. A handsome boy of the age of twelve years who, as he walked in a forest that was back of his father's farm, from the brooks running under the trees and the ponds; from the trees, as well. And their inhabitants; had had put into his head thoughts that caused his elders, with questioning looks to watch him, Whenever the thoughts that in the forest he had obtained, he uttered. At this age, all things that; in such wanderings he found, he took to, and shared with his companions.
There was, once upon a time, a youth, some of whose dreams as the years passed. He for others exchanged; and moved by the spirit that was working through those of another kind, he was led away, to go to a distant and great city. In the youth's face there remained not so much light as in the face of the boy there had been.
