In eighteen thirty, only a few miles away from what is now the great city of Cincinnan, Ohio, lay a
36 and a
lmost endless forest.
The area had a few settlements
37 by people of the frontier. Many of them had already left the area for settlements further
39 the west.
But among those
40 was a man who had been one of the first people to arrive there.
He lived alone in a house of logs surrounded
41 all sides by the great forest. He seemed a part of the darkness and
42 of the forest, for no one had
43 known him to smile or speak an unnecessary word. His simple needs were
44 by selling or trading the skins of wild animals in the town.
His little log house had a single door. Directly
45 was a window. The window was boarded up(堵住). No one could remember a(n)
46 when it was not. And no one knew why it had been
47 . I imagine there are few people living today who ever knew the
48 of that window. But I am one, as you shall
49 .
The man's name was said to be Murlock. He
50 to be seventy years old, but he was really fifty. Something other than years had been the
51 of his aging.
His hair and long, full beard were white. His gray,
52 eyes were sunken. His face was wrinkled. He was tall and thin with drooping shoulders—like someone with many
53 .
I never saw him. These
54 I learned from my grandfather. He told me the man's story
55 I was a boy. He had known him when living nearby in that early day.
