Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Call at Evening Among those who ventured to follow at a respectful distance was Marion Burnside, who, having no thought of ever equaling, was quite content withholding sec ond place. The fact that Marion Burnside was also a deacon in the church which the Honorable one favored with his presence at each Sunday service, was enough in itself to entitle him to that place. Who else could think of occupying there? Others must be content to allow their individuality to be swallowed up in the mass Of Leesburg citizens.
