Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from That Year at Lincoln High Imperiously the door bell clanged. Whereat from his den on the top floor of a residence in the fashionable West Nineties, J. Henley Smolett, Jr., came bounding on a run, leaped for the banister, slid to the floor below, ran to the turn in the landing and slid again. It was not his usual mode of action when the door bell rang. J. Henley was a stickler for making servants serve. But that imperious ring meant Donald Bronson, son of Angus Bronson, president of the Eastern Railway. At fashionable Colborn School there was a Bronson Hall, a Bronson Chapel and a Bronson Field - hence J. Henley Smolett Juniors eagerness to beat the maid to the door. Only the moment before he had been eagerly devouring the catalog of Colborn School, feasting particularly on the photograph of Bronson Hall where Donald was about to take up four years of pleasant residence. That ring at the door meant that he had come, as he had promised, to induce Mr. Smolett to send J. Henley along with him to Colborn. The two boys had just graduated from the exclusive elementary school at Gascon Institute. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
