ROBERT WILLIAM CHAMBERS
American novelist
(1865 - 1933)
  CHECK READING LIST (4)  

The case in question concerned a letter in a yellow envelope, which was dumped along with other incoming mail upon one of the many long tables where hundreds of women and scores of men sat opening and reading thousands of letters for the Bureau of P.C.--whatever that may mean.
      - In Secret (ch. I) [Books (First Lines)]

There was a long, brisk, decisive ring at the door. He continued working. After an interval the bell rang again, briefly, as though the light touch on the electric button had lost its assurance.
      - The Common Law (ch. 1)
        [Books (First Lines)]

The speed of the train slackened; a broad tidal river flashed into sight below the trestle, spreading away on either hand through yellowing level meadows. And now, above the roaring undertone of the cars, from far ahead floated back the treble bell-notes of the locomotive; there came a gritting vibration of the brakes; slowly, more slowly the cars glided to a creaking standstill beside a sun-scorched platform gay with the bright flutter of sunshades and summer gowns.
      - The Fighting Chance (ch. 1)
        [Books (First Lines)]

"You never met Selwyn, did you?"
      - The Younger Set (ch. 1)
        [Books (First Lines)]
