"
Let
it
come
down
,
then
,
"
breathed
out
Decoud
,
earnestly
,
almost
into
her
ear
.
"
But
if
the
rumour
should
get
about
,
and
especially
if
it
turned
out
true
,
troubles
might
break
out
in
the
town
,
"
objected
Mrs.
Gould
.
Decoud
admitted
that
it
was
possible
.
He
knew
well
the
town
children
of
the
Sulaco
Campo
:
sullen
,
thievish
,
vindictive
,
and
bloodthirsty
,
whatever
great
qualities
their
brothers
of
the
plain
might
have
had
.
But
then
there
was
that
other
sentimentalist
,
who
attached
a
strangely
idealistic
meaning
to
concrete
facts
.
This
stream
of
silver
must
be
kept
flowing
north
to
return
in
the
form
of
financial
backing
from
the
great
house
of
Holroyd
.
Up
at
the
mountain
in
the
strong
room
of
the
mine
the
silver
bars
were
worth
less
for
his
purpose
than
so
much
lead
,
from
which
at
least
bullets
may
be
run
.
Let
it
come
down
to
the
harbour
,
ready
for
shipment
.
The
next
north-going
steamer
would
carry
it
off
for
the
very
salvation
of
the
San
Tome
mine
,
which
had
produced
so
much
treasure
.
And
,
moreover
,
the
rumour
was
probably
false
,
he
remarked
,
with
much
conviction
in
his
hurried
tone
.
"
Besides
,
senora
,
"
concluded
Decoud
,
"
we
may
suppress
it
for
many
days
.
I
have
been
talking
with
the
telegraphist
in
the
middle
of
the
Plaza
Mayor
;
thus
I
am
certain
that
we
could
not
have
been
overheard
.
There
was
not
even
a
bird
in
the
air
near
us
.
And
also
let
me
tell
you
something
more
.
I
have
been
making
friends
with
this
man
called
Nostromo
,
the
Capataz
.
We
had
a
conversation
this
very
evening
,
I
walking
by
the
side
of
his
horse
as
he
rode
slowly
out
of
the
town
just
now
.
He
promised
me
that
if
a
riot
took
place
for
any
reason
--
even
for
the
most
political
of
reasons
,
you
understand
--
his
Cargadores
,
an
important
part
of
the
populace
,
you
will
admit
,
should
be
found
on
the
side
of
the
Europeans
.
"
"
He
has
promised
you
that
?
"
Mrs.
Gould
inquired
,
with
interest
.
"
What
made
him
make
that
promise
to
you
?
"
"
Upon
my
word
,
I
do
n't
know
,
"
declared
Decoud
,
in
a
slightly
surprised
tone
.
"
He
certainly
promised
me
that
,
but
now
you
ask
me
why
,
I
could
not
tell
you
his
reasons
.
He
talked
with
his
usual
carelessness
,
which
,
if
he
had
been
anything
else
but
a
common
sailor
,
I
would
call
a
pose
or
an
affectation
.
"
Decoud
,
interrupting
himself
,
looked
at
Mrs.
Gould
curiously
.
