Pilgrim Notes and Town Updates From a Morning Train
A constant traveller on a morning train observes familiar riders including a young woman from Highlands and a man who pays her fare until their bond becomes evident. The tale hints that love rides the rail while wealth skips fares. The death of A W Richardson removes a town fixture admired for his candor. Webb’s outspoken nature leaves a lasting impression on friends. George H Raynes seeks selectman, arranging an oranges contest on Constitution alleys. Thomas Haggerston retires as constable after years of service, others campaign for the job. Dowling appears likely winner as town reports praise most departments for the past year.
