Dust Before the Wind, Vol. 1 of 2: A Novel (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Dust Before the Wind, Vol. 1 of 2: A Novel

"'Tis true 'tis pity; and pity 'tis
'Tis true."

By way of preface, let it be understood that this story is only written because it is said to be true.

Surely, in the affairs of daily life, an ounce of fact is worth a pound of fiction. "But that is not art," cry the crowd. There are many strange tales we all know, which, if they were written, no one would believe.

Pro says, confidentially: You see, my dear friend, when you write a story you must make it seem like ordinary life.
