Excerpt from Second Choice
There was a creek near by, and when the great double toned whistle at the factory was blown at closing-time he unharnessed his horse and led it down to the stream. Hitching the animal to a bush, he threw Off his clothes and plunged into the water. The pool was four or five feet in depth, with a sandy bottom, and thirty or forty feet in width. Pond-lilies spread their broad leaves on the surface beneath the jutting clay banks, and weeping willows dropped their feathery branches down till their tips were submerged.
