Excerpt from Tracked a Story in Two Volumes, Vol. 1 of 2

The path by the river lay white and silent under the sky and stars, with no traces of the workmen who had tramped along it from the town at noon. The snow which had fallen in the evening had effaced the marks they made; and yet there was one line of foot marks now, which lay there, uneffaced, in a dark track beneath the sky.

These had been caused bya young man or boy - he was of the age to which either title can be given - who had come along in the darkness by the river from the town, and who stood now within the gate that separated the path from the platform, leaning upon it, and watching the bustle that the arrival of the evening train had caused. Perhaps the View of the lights and movements pleased him after his dark and lonely walk and perhaps, also, he was himself in no great hurry to be seen.
