Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from This Indenture Witnesseth, Vol. 1 of 3 There was no native parliaments then, and no members´ wives of dubious gentility but fixed rank - it was a military society consisting of the governor, his staff of officials, and the naval officers on the station; and, besides these, there were always a certain number of Indian officers, for at that time these latter might in case of illness obtain a three months´ leave, spend it at the Cape, and yet draw their full pay. Not unnaturally, they frequently availed themselves of this privilege; and to them and to their families the right hand of fellowship was always cordially extended. It was a strictly kept circle, but gay enough at all × and even at the period I write about, when war was raging so near, there was still leisure for balls and picnics, and spirit to enjoy them, though those who danced at night might have to go off to the scene of action at sunrise. That was the case the evening my story opens. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
