Excerpt from Shadows, Vol. 22: Literary Magazine of the Creighton University, February, 1931Now, merely to find a box of chocolate covered cherries hidden under the dining room table would not mean anything particular to most persons. Yet, although Marty had no craving for chocolate covered cherries, the finding of them did mean something to her. It meant that Hiram had hidden them there, and why he had hidden them there must mean some thing else.Marty knew it had to be Hiram, because there was no one else living in the huge white farm house, other than Hiram and herself and, what was more, there hadn't ever been. Their forty-odd years of married life had been childless.Why Hiram had bought the candy remained a mys try to her. It wasn't like him to be buying chocolates and hiding them around the house in out-of~the-way places. Of course, she reflected, he did keep letters and postals under the oil cloth in the kitchen, but never had she known him to hide things under the dining room table.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
