Excerpt from Young Blood The boy rolled up his rug and changed his cap for a villainous sombrero preserved for the occasion. He then made a selection from his lavish supply Of periodical literature, and when he next looked out the train was running in the very shadow Of some furnaces in full blast. The morning sun looked cool and pale behind their monstrous fires, and Harry took Off the sombrero to his father's ironworks, though with a rather grim eye, which saw the illuminated squalor Of the scene without appreciating its prosperity. Sulphurous flames issued from all four furnaces; at one Of the four they were casting as the train passed, and the molten incandescent stream ran white as the wire Of an electric light.
