Отрывок из книги
Marah Ellis Ryan
A Romance of the Land of Gold and Sunshine
.....
“But it happened to every Indian on the boat, and the boat was full! No one knows how the poor devils decided it, but it was their only escape from slavery, and they went over the side like a school of fish. Men, women, and children from the desert who couldn’t swim a stroke! Talk about nerve––there wasn’t one weakling in that whole outfit, not one! Perez was wild. It lost him sixty dollars a head, American.”
“And that’s the neighbor friend Conrad takes a run down south to see occasionally?”
