Answer 2

Answer :

In the short story 'Best-seller' by O. Henry, Pescud describes Coketown as 'Coketown was nothing more than a ragged hillside dotted with a score of black dismal huts propped up against dreary mounds of slag and clinkers. It rained in slanting torrents, too, and the rills foamed and splashed down through the black mud to the railroad-tracks.'

Pescud was going to Coketown to get some petunias that his wife, Jessie had spotted in a pot in one of the windows just like the ones she used to raise down in the old Virginia home.
