The Knapsack Man

By Harmon Sloan

Lucy Noble's mouth changed to a cruel, thin line when she looked outside and noticed movement behind a clump of bushes near the edge of her yard. Despite having poor eyesight, there was no doubt in her mind the knapsack man had returned. His features did not differ from fifty years ago, wrinkled, and stooped, with a knapsack on his back. He stood behind a tall oak tree that morning, so long ago, his face expressionless as a holy fire burned two men alive for violating her young daughter.Lucy summoned her friend and helper. Ula explained the knapsack man's presence. Lucy grew worried. The truth scared her. It became urgent that she discuss the terrible details with Alice Mitchell, a niece she had never met. Martin's letter should persuade Alice to visit soon as possible. Aunt Lucy is sick and wants to see you. Alice was the only one left to pass the truth on to the next generation of their female relatives.
