${\bold{\red{\huge{Your\:Answer}}}}$

Explanation:

Ernest Hemingway's economical short story "Old Man at the Bridge"

first appeared in Ken Magazine (Volume 1, Number 4, May 19, 1938) prior

to its later publication in the book "The Fifth Column" and "The First Forty-Nine Stories", also published in 1938. 

The Fifth Column is Hemingway's only full-length play and also

includes all of his previously published short stories.

At just two pages in length, "The Old Man at the Bridge" is one of Hemingway's shortest tales. It is based upon an Easter Sunday 

stopover at the Ebro River during his coverage of the Spanish Civil War

in April 1938. Although employed by the North American Newspaper

Association (NANA), Hemingway apparently decided to submit it to 

Ken Magazine as a short story instead of using it as a news article.

As Hemingway observes the movement of vehicles and civilians fleeing

across the pontoon bridge from an anticipated enemy attack, he notices a

solitary old man sitting at the edge of the structure. Upon questioning him,

Hemingway determines that the old man has just walked the twelve

kilometers from his home village of San Carlos, but fatigue forces him

to halt at the bridge, for he can go no further.

The last man to leave the village, the old man's duty is to take care

of the animals left behind. It is obvious that he takes his obligation seriously,

for he worries more about the cat, two goats, and eight pigeons that were

under his care than for his own safety.

Sadly, he explains, he was forced to leave them behind.

The cat will be able to take care of itself, he adds, but the goats and

pigeons will have to fend for themselves.

The correspondent suggests that the displaced man cross the bridge

to the next crossroads, where he can catch a truck toward Barcelona, but

the man explains that "I know no one in that direction.

" Although the correspondent is curious, he is not particularly helpful, and

when the old man is unable to proceed, the journalist decides that

"there was nothing to do about him."

The enemy would cross the bridge soon, and

death appears imminent for the old man.
