Echoes of Labor and a Man Out of Time in Ephraim Tale
An altered city morning follows a labor movement themed toast then shifts to Ephraim Batterby waking in a world where newspapers, furniture, and transit vanish. He meets a stranger, longs for his routine, and discovers a city moved to an older era with knee breeches and reworked offices and streets. The tale traces loss, confusion, and search for a telegraph office.

An Old Fogy Reflects on Past Times and Change
Ephriam Batterby laments modern life and clings to the old days. He recalls three women who shaped his memory, acknowledges youth faded, and admits a wish to relive his struggles and affections while maintaining a stubborn respect for tradition. In a winter night scene, his reverie blends with his granddaughter Nelly’s quiet presence.
