The Empty Hotel
Excerpt from The Empty Hotel
I was met at the door of the dining-room by the obsequious Soloman A. Smith, a smiling darkey whose plump flesh threatened to burst through his well worn dress coat. Conducting me with several effusive waves of his hand through the spacious apartment between dozens of unoccupied tables, he showed me to the place where I would take my evening meal.
