Excerpt from The Problem There was scarcely a person, place, or thing around the charming village of Woodrow that Dr. Hunt M. Warren did t kw and love. It was, therefore, wonder that the people of that place loved him; or that Grandma Adams when she fell and broke her wrist, or little Susie Plummer when she had the croup wanted Dr. Warren instead of the young Dr. Ellery who had recently settled there, and had made his brags about feeding Warren's horses on straw before the season was over. The people of that little town were a genuine people who recognized and appreciated true worth, and never more so than in their tried and trusted friend who had stood so loyally by them in storm and sunshine. One morning, in the latter part of August, Dr. Warren waked, turned over, looked at his watch, and wondered how much longer he might allow himself this luxury.
