  The American Senator is a novel written in 1875 by Anthony Trollope. Although not one of Trollope's better-known works, it is notable for its depictions of rural English life and for its many detailed fox hunting scenes. In its anti-heroine, Arabella Trefoil, it presents a scathing but ultimately sympathetic portrayal of a woman who has abandoned virtually all scruples in her quest for a husband. Through the eponymous Senator, Trollope offers comments on the irrational aspects of English life. (Description by Wikipedia)

  "The Cop and the Anthem" is a December 1904 short story by the United States author O. Henry. It includes several of the classic elements of an O. Henry story, including a setting in New York City, an empathetic look at the state of mind of a member of an underprivileged class, and an ironic ending. "The Cop and the Anthem" has only one character who is given a name, the protagonist "Soapy." It is made clear that Soapy is homeless, one of the underclass men and women who flocked to New York City during the earliest years of the twentieth century. The short story's narrative is set in an unstated day in late fall. Soapy faces the urgent necessity of finding some sort of shelter for the winter. He is psychologically experienced in thinking of Blackwell's Island, the local jail, as a de facto winter homeless shelter, and the narrative shows him developing a series of tactics intended to encourage the police to classify him as a criminal and arrest him.

  The Girl Who Rode Alone - A...

  No one in the territory knew where she came from. 
  She rode into town beneath a red sky, dust on her boots and a Winchester across her saddle. Quiet. Watchful. Alone. 
  Most folks figured she was just another drifter passing through. 
  They were wrong. 
  Somewhere behind her lay a burned ranch, a dead father, and a name she meant to settle with cold steel. The men responsible thought the past was buried out on the high plains. 
  They never imagined the reckoning would ride into town wearing a wide-brim hat and a calm, steady gaze. 
  Now the cattle barons who rule the valley are about to learn a hard truth: 
  A woman with nothing left to lose can be more dangerous than any gunman alive. 
  Before the red dust settles, the streets will echo with rifle fire—and the girl who rode alone will decide who lives long enough to remember her name.
