About this ebook

This work explores the unique story of a thin, tall, and shabby man called Chronic Loafer. It is an exciting account of how his life gets affected by an unexpected event. The tale is set in the center of one of the most picturesque valleys In Pennsylvania. The author Nelson M. Lloyd (1873-1933) wrote for the New York Evening Sun for some time and authored many interesting short stories and novels. The Chronic Loafer presents one of his most celebrated stories. Excerpt from The Chronic Loafer "All eyes were turned toward the end of the bench, where sat the Chronic Loafer. He was a tall, thin, loose-jointed man. Thick, untrimmed locks of tawny hair fell from beneath his ragged, straw hat, framing a face whose most prominent features were a pair of deep-set, dull blue eyes, two sharp, protruding cheek-bones and a week's growth of red beard. His attire was simple in the extreme."
