Book Description
The Erie Train Boy: Large Print By Horatio Alger "Papers, magazines, all the popular novels! Can't I sell you something this morning?" Joshua Bascom turned as the train boy addressed him, and revealed an honest, sunburned face, lighted up with pleasurable excitement, for he was a farmer's son and was making his first visit to the city of New York. "I ain't much on story readin'," he said, "I tried to read a story book once, but I couldn't seem to get interested in it." "What was the name of it?" asked Fred, the train boy, smiling. "It was the 'Pilgrim's Progress, ' or some such name. It had pictures into it. Aunt Nancy give it to dad for a birthday present once." "I have heard of it." "It was a mighty queer book. I couldn't make head nor tail on't." "All books are not like that." "I don't feel like readin'. It's a nuff sight more interestin' lookin' out of the winder at the sights. "I'm going to York to spend a week," added Joshua, with an air of importance. "That's where I live," said the train boy.
