from The Locket
by Kate Chopin
A man was picking his way across the plain. He was dressed in the garb of a clergyman. His mission was to administer the consolations of
religion to any of the prostrate figures in whom there might yet linger a spark of life.
There was a soldier-a mere boy-lying with his face to the sky. His hands were clutching the grass on either side. Around his neck hung a gold
chain and locket. The priest, bending over him, unclasped the chain and removed it from the dead soldier's neck. He had grown used to the terrors
of war and could face them unflinchingly; but its pathos!, someway, always brought the tears to his old, dim eyes.
