Excerpt from An Incident: And Other Happenings It was towards the end Of February; a clear afternoon drawing towards sunset; and all the flat, sad country was covered with a drifting red glow that turned the field of broom-grass into a sea of gold; that lighted up the black wall of pine-barren, and Shot, here and there, long shafts of light into the sombre depths of the cypress swamp. There was no Sign of life about the dwelling-house, though the doors and windows stood open; but every now and then a negro woman came out Of the kitchen and looked about, while within a dog whined. Shading her eyes with her hand, this woman would gaze across the field towards the ruin; then down the road; then, descending the steps, she would walk a little way towards the swamp and look along the dam that, ending the yard on this side, led out between the marsh and the swamp to the river. The over-full river had backed up into the yard, however, and the line of the dam could now only be guessed by the wall of solemn cypress-trees that edged the swamp. Still, the woman looked in this dircc tion many times, and also towards the railway embankment, from which a path led towards the house, crossing the head of the swamp by a bridge made of two felled trees.
