Worth Waiting For Worm and Echoes of Union Station
A fragmented nineteenth century prose piece recalls a woman's tense vigil at Union Station, her face in fine tucks and sparse hair as trains pass. The narrative blends historical allusions to Corday and Napoleon with a portrait of a tense waiting crowd, interspersed with local Chicago names and business notes. The piece shifts to social praise for figures like Stillman B. Jamieson and James Rownexing, and mentions local institutions and firms such as the Norman Institute of Massage and the Chicago Pneumatic Tool Company.
