Father and mother moved to Beverly Farms to be a two-minute walk from the station, half an hour by train from the Boston doctors. They had no sea-view, but sky-blue tracks of the commuters' railroad shone like a double-barreled shotgun through the scarlet late August sumac, multiplying like cancer at their garden's border.
