Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Verbena Camellia Stephanotis, Etc Concerning the stories contained in this volume, I desire to place on record one or two incidents which may serve as a preface. The second narrative relates the ´Doubts of Dives.´ This first appeared in Arrowsmith´s well-known series of tales. One evening, soon after its publication, on returning home about five o´clock, I learned that a gentleman, who had refused to give his name, was waiting to see me. On my entrance, he rose and looked at me with a very odd expression, which I mistook for curiosity. I asked him his name, In reply, he laughed aloud - he laughed in derision, and remarked that this was really too absurd - much too absurd. As a short-sighted man may, and often does, forget faces only half-seen, I supposed that I had met this person somewhere, and had somehow forgotten him. I therefore repeated the question with emphasis; but obtained a similar exasperating reply. He would not believe, I found, that I failed to recognise him. Then I requested him to tell me at once where I had met him and what was his purpose in calling upon me, or else to walk out of the house. He thereupon ceased from scoffing, and proceeded to business. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
