Synopsis
Excerpt from Forest Fugitives
Mary said nothing of these things. She sat in the great lumbering carriage with one of her father's strong hands between both of hers, and answered his questions about her dead mother. The heat of the tropical afternoon was oppressive. The four mules which drew the carriage moved slowly, though the black postilion did not spare the lash. Behind the carriage another black, well mounted, led Alvarez's saddle-horse.
