Excerpt from The Woman-Haters: A Yarn of Eastboro Twin-Lights
A Story of mine called, like this, The Woman-Haters, appeared recently in one of the magazines. That story was not this one, except in part - the part dealing with John Brown and Miss Ruth Graham. Readers of the former tale who perhaps imagine they know all about Seth Atkins and Mrs. Emeline Bascom will be surprised to find they really know so little. The truth is that, when I began to revise and rearrange the magazine story for publication as a book, new ideas came, grew, and developed. I discovered that I had been misinformed concerning the lightkeeper's past and present relations with the housekeeper at the bungalow.
