Excerpt from A Christmas Portfolio It was a gray day. There had been no crimsoning gleam at sunrise, there was no hint of sunset glory now there was nothing but a gray world creeping out to meet a grayer sky. The hills to the right, which yesterday had been wrapped in silver sheen and warm blue mist, were a heavy wall of gray ness, the willows bordering the stream, a long procession of nuns, gray-faced, gray-robed, gray-veiled. The road, along which the wagon creaked wearily, was but a gray ribbon u/m tangling itself from wide stretches of gray prairie. It is starting to rain, said Walter Preston, letting down the curtain of the covered wagon. I 'wish it had kept clear another hour. We've only a mile or SO to go.
