James L. (James Laughlin) Hughes
She remembered the evening, not two years before, when she herded from the ferry, satchel in hand, oppressed by the jargon of a thousand tongues, she had arrived, hustled and jostled, barely making head against the outflowing tide of humanity which flushed the street in its roaring homeward scramble.
"The Salamander"
Owen Johnson
That homeless one beheld beyond His lonely agonizing pain, A love outflowing from His heart, That all the wandering world would gain.
