BEYOND THE WALL by AMBROSE BIERCE

Although Ambrose Bierce is best known for his Civil War stories, this story, probably sold to a magazine like Colliers, which was popular for stories with Victorian style romance, is a shining example of Bierce's talents as a writer. In this tale, a man visits an old friend in San Francisco whose solitary life has been turned upside down by his own act of pride in shutting the girl he loved out of his life because she came from a different social background.
