Excerpt from A Rich Man's Relatives, Vol. 2 of 3 Along the dusty road came sounds of wheels, the wheels of the Misses Stanleys' home-going guests. The sound spread far and wide across the humid air which sublimated it into something above the common daylight noise, rasping and jarring against stones and gravel, into a rumbling half musical with sug gestive echoes reverberating through the stillness. Out of the gate they came, those vehicles, along the road, around the corner where Bruneau's cottage stood, and down towards the village shrouded in gathering obscurity, with the twinkle of a candle scattered through it here and there in rivalry Of the fire - flies in the bushes nearer hand, but far less brilliant. The vehicles rumbled and disappeared, and the echoes Of their wheels died out as rip ples die on the surface Of a stagnant pool; and the road was left alone to night and silence.
