Opis: The Year of Miracle - Hume Fergus

Excerpt from The Year of Miracle: A Tale of the Year One Thousand Nine Hundred

The door was that of a respectable-looking house in Weymouth Street, in the year one thousand nine hundred, and the bright, new brass plate attached to the door of the respectable-looking house, displayed the name Dr. Francis Rebelspear, engraved in fat, black letters, defiantly prominent in their determination to attract the attention of the public. Poor Rebelspear, he was very proud when he first obtained the right to use that title, looking upon it as a sure lure to those who desired to be cured by the application of the latest medical science; but, evidently, the sick, the halt, the lame, and the blind or rather the half-blind mistrusted the inexperienced look of that new brass plate, for they invariably passed by on their way to some older practitioner, while Dr. Francis sat gloomily in his empty consulting-room; wondering when his turn would come to experiment on the ailing bodies of his fellow-creatures.
