The paragraph below is most unusual. How quickly can you find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary you'd think nothing was wrong with it - and in fact, nothing is wrong with it. It is unusual though. Why?
"Gatsby was walking back from a visit down in Branton Hill's manufacturing district on a Saturday night.

The above passage is taken from the book "Gatsby" written by Ernest Vincent Wright in the late 1930's

The letter "e" is not used at all in that paragraph.
