Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The World and Thomas Kelly The day Tom Kelly was born the "Old Elm" on Boston Common was struck by lightning. This being one of those phenomena of nature denominated "acts of God" by the insurance companies, the correct inhabitants of the ancient New England capital were somewhat in doubt as to whether to consider the occurrence a "deliberately unfriendly act" on the part of the Deity, or to regard it merely as an uncalled-for and rather ill-advised eccentricity. However, by this fact the well-informed reader can fix with accuracy the date upon which this story opens. There was doubtless no significance in the coincidence of the accident to the historic Tree with that other quite common and natural event, which had taken place earlier in the day in one of the upper chambers of a seventeen-foot brick house on Newbury Street, in the district of "made" land known as the "Back Bay."
