Prisoner in Fairyland

A Prisoner in Fairyland Algernon Blackwood - In the train, even before St. John's was passed, a touch of inevitable reaction had set in, and Rogers asked himself why he was going. For a sentimental journey was hardly in his line, it seemed. But no satisfactory answer was forthcoming -- none, at least, that a Board or a Shareholders' Meeting would have considered satisfactory. The old vicar spoke to him strangely. "e;We've not forgotten you as you've forgotten us,"e; he said. "e;And the place, though empty now for years, has not forgotten you either, I'll be bound."e; Rogers brushed it off. Just silliness -- that was all it was. But after St. John's the conductor shouted, "e;Take your seats! Take your seats! The Starlight Express is off to Fairyland! Show your tickets! Show your tickets!"e; And then the forgotten mystery of his childhood came back to him.
