Description

Excerpt from The Exiles and Other Stories Life was terribly earnest to young Holcombe, and he regarded it from the point of View of one who looks down upon it from the judge's bench, and listens with a frown to those who plead its cause. He was not fooled by it he was alive to its wickedness and its evasions. He would tell you that he knew for a fact that the window man in his district was a cousin of the Tammany can didate, and that the contractor who had the clean ing of the street to do was a brother-in-law of one of the Hall's sachems, and that the policeman on his beat had not been in the country eight months. He spoke of these damning facts with the air of one who simply tells you that much, that you should see how terrible the whole thing really was, and what he could tell if he wished.
