from the hotel across the long bridge
which spans the wide Ulea river, afford

waters, and downward toward the
quays and harbor. one of the finest
sweeps of scenery that one could wish to
see. A quaint old crone, with short,
black pipe in her mouth, sat at the toll
bar beyond the bridge to collect the
half-penny toll, for which she gave a
pretty, square ticket in receipt, and

engineers seem to have got it into their
heads that the engine was really driven
by god which took the form of steam.
When it went wrong they thought the
god was angry and needed propitiating
by the sacrifice of human being.
One night Hindoo Iaborer named Co
vindah was passing the mill Some
workmen, sitting in the yard smoking,
called out to him to join them. The
gang had just been discussing the vaga-
ries Of the engine and the necessity for
offering sacrifice to it. The whole par
