Remembrance and Revenge in a Desolate Signal Box
A former signal box keeper recalls a stormy night when rival Matthew Holt kidnaps him, seeking vengeance for old slights, as a bridge collapses and a trains peril nears. In a tense struggle, the keeper warns Holt of dire consequences, a dramatic escape follows, and the express barely survives the peril. The night ends with Holt dead in the river debris, and the narrator freed from the brink of ruin.
