Excerpt from The Upstart

The old fisherman and the small boy walked a couple of hundred feet down the curving river bank to a knoll, where, safe above high water, stood a curious structure of driftwood and refuse lumber. Its roof was little higher than a man's head, but it stretched back for forty feet, like a section of a tunnel. In front of it was a little platform, supported on piles over the oily stream, to reach which it was necessary to descend the bank and then climb a ladder of six steps.
