Excerpt from Tales of Unrest
We knew him in those unprotected days when we were content to hold in our
hands our lives and our property. None of us, I believe, has any property now, and I hear that many, negligently, have lost their lives; but I am sure that the few who survive are not yet so dim-eyed as to miss in the befogged respectability of their newspapers the intelligence of various native risings in the Eastern Archipelago. Sunshine gleams between the lines of those short paragraphs - sunshine and the glitter of the sea.
