About this book

The Depot Master is by Joseph Crosby Lincoln. The contents list chapters named, among others, At the Depot, Supply and Demand, Stingy Gabe, The Major, A Baby and a Robbery, and Aviation and Avarice. Mr. Simeon Phinney emerged from the side door of his residence and paused a moment to light his pipe in the lee of the lilac bushes.

A speaker tells Sim he never intended to see the Cape again, but couldn't stay away somehow, and that he bought a catboat and took out sailin' parties from Wixon and Wingate's summer hotel. A man who is fat and shiny, and drivin' a skittish horse hitched to a fancy buggy, asks King Sol whether he can run a gasoline launch. The blacksmith says Is McKay is in town to-day, came over in the Lady May, a gasoline boat, and would take Sam to Trumet for two or three dollars, he bets.

About the author

Joseph Crosby Lincoln

Joseph Crosby Lincoln (1870–1944) was an American novelist, poet, and short-story writer who built his reputation almost entirely on Cape Cod. Over four decades he produced dozens of popular novels and story collections peopled by retired sea captains, sharp-tongued widows, and small-town New Englanders.
