After a long night of consoling the widow of another preacher, Gideon found himself a place to sleep in the straw of the barn -- when two strangers came asking for a preacher, any preacher at all. So Gideon went with them. After talking with the dying man, and keeping him company until he lapsed back into unconsciousness, Gideon wondered what he should do. Of course, the dying man had spoken his last wish -- and maybe that wish had little to do with the Good Lord's work. Or maybe it had everything to do with the work that he, Gideon, had to do. So he turned then to the one whose name was Mr. Hamlin, and asked, "Do you know Kate Somers? Can you send for her right away?" "Why, ain't this playing it a little too low down?" said Mr. Hamlin. "She -- she's got no character!" But Gideon knew what he was about. In "By Shore and Sedge," and three other stories of the far West, Bret Harte (1836-1902) tells of the hopeful souls convinced of the glories to be won in the Gold country -- and of the hardened ones who must struggle to raise themselves above the desperate and toilsome life of the pioneer.

Excerpt from By Shore and Sedge On October 10, 1856, about four hundred people were camped in Tasajara Valley, California. It could not have been for the prospect, since a more barren, dreary, monotonous, and uninviting landscape never stretched before human eye; it could not have been for convenience or contiguity, as the nearest settlement was thirty miles away; it could not have been for health or salubrity, as the breath of the ague-haunted tides in the outlying Stockton marshes swept through the valley; it could not have been for space or comfort, for, encamped on an unlimited plain, men and women were huddled together as closely as in an urban tenement-house, without the freedom or decency of rural isolation; it could not have been for pleasant companionship, as dejection, mental anxiety, tears, and lamentation were the dominant expression; it was not a hurried flight from present or impending calamity, for the camp had been deliberately planned, and for a week pioneer waggons had been slowly arriving; it was not an irrevocable exodus, for some had already returned to their homes that others might take their places. It was simply a religious revival of one or two denominational sects, known as a 'camp meeting.' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Excerpt: ... glory!" he continued, with fluent vacuity and wandering, dull, observant eyes."But if I had a little more practice in class, Brother Silas, more education?""The letter killeth," interrupted Brother Silas. Here his wandering eyes took dull cognizance of two female faces peering through the opening of the tent. "No, yer mishun, Brother Gideon, is to seek Him in the by-ways, in the wilderness, --where the foxes hev holes and the ravens hev their young, --but not in the Temples of the people. Wot sez Sister Parsons?"One of the female faces detached itself from the tent flaps, which it nearly resembled in color, and brought forward an angular figure clothed in faded fustian that had taken the various shades and odors of household service."Brother Silas speaks well," said Sister Parsons, with stridulous fluency. "It's fore-ordained. Fore-ordinashun is better nor ordinashun, saith the Lord. He shall go forth, turnin' neither to the right hand nor the left hand, and seek Him among the lost .

Excerpt from Drift From Two Shores, Maruja: By Shore and Sedge, Thankful Blossom The gallant Captain, unfortunately, believed that if he walked out in his uniform he would suffer some delay from being interrogated by wayfarers as to the locality of the circus he would be pleasantly supposed to represent, even if he escaped being shot as a rare California bird by the foreign sporting contingent. In these circumstances, he would simply lounge around the house until his carriage was ready. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
