Maxwell, William Babington: The Devils Garden. v1. 29 Nov 2015
William Babington Maxwell (1866–1938) was a British novelist. Born on June 4, 1866, he was the third surviving child and second eldest son of novelist Mary Elizabeth Braddon.
Excerpt THE village postmaster stood staring at an official envelope that had just been shaken out of a mail-bag upon the sorting-table. It was addressed to himself; and for a few moments his heart beat quicker, with sharp, clean percussions, as if it were trying to imitate the sounds made by the two clerks as they plied their stampers on the blocks. Perhaps this envelope contained his fate. This work is assumed to be in the Life+70 public domain OR the copyright holder has given specific permission for distribution.
