Oh
,
yes
,
I
know
it
's
contrary
to
the
doctrine
laid
down
in
the
'
History
of
Fifty
Years
'
Misrule
.
'
I
am
only
trying
to
be
sensible
.
But
my
sense
seems
always
to
give
you
cause
for
offence
.
Have
I
startled
you
very
much
with
this
perfectly
reasonable
aspiration
?
"
She
shook
her
head
.
No
,
she
was
not
startled
,
but
the
idea
shocked
her
early
convictions
.
Her
patriotism
was
larger
.
She
had
never
considered
that
possibility
.
"
It
may
yet
be
the
means
of
saving
some
of
your
convictions
,
"
he
said
,
prophetically
.
She
did
not
answer
.
She
seemed
tired
.
They
leaned
side
by
side
on
the
rail
of
the
little
balcony
,
very
friendly
,
having
exhausted
politics
,
giving
themselves
up
to
the
silent
feeling
of
their
nearness
,
in
one
of
those
profound
pauses
that
fall
upon
the
rhythm
of
passion
.
Towards
the
plaza
end
of
the
street
the
glowing
coals
in
the
brazeros
of
the
market
women
cooking
their
evening
meal
gleamed
red
along
the
edge
of
the
pavement
.
A
man
appeared
without
a
sound
in
the
light
of
a
street
lamp
,
showing
the
coloured
inverted
triangle
of
his
bordered
poncho
,
square
on
his
shoulders
,
hanging
to
a
point
below
his
knees
.
From
the
harbour
end
of
the
Calle
a
horseman
walked
his
soft-stepping
mount
,
gleaming
silver-grey
abreast
each
lamp
under
the
dark
shape
of
the
rider
.
"
Behold
the
illustrious
Capataz
de
Cargadores
,
"
said
Decoud
,
gently
,
"
coming
in
all
his
splendour
after
his
work
is
done
.
The
next
great
man
of
Sulaco
after
Don
Carlos
Gould
.
But
he
is
good-natured
,
and
let
me
make
friends
with
him
.
"
"
Ah
,
indeed
!
"
said
Antonia
.
"
How
did
you
make
friends
?
"
"
A
journalist
ought
to
have
his
finger
on
the
popular
pulse
,
and
this
man
is
one
of
the
leaders
of
the
populace
.
A
journalist
ought
to
know
remarkable
men
--
and
this
man
is
remarkable
in
his
way
.
"
"
Ah
,
yes
!
"
said
Antonia
,
thoughtfully
.
"
It
is
known
that
this
Italian
has
a
great
influence
.
"
The
horseman
had
passed
below
them
,
with
a
gleam
of
dim
light
on
the
shining
broad
quarters
of
the
grey
mare
,
on
a
bright
heavy
stirrup
,
on
a
long
silver
spur
;
but
the
short
flick
of
yellowish
flame
in
the
dusk
was
powerless
against
the
muffled-up
mysteriousness
of
the
dark
figure
with
an
invisible
face
concealed
by
a
great
sombrero
.
