Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sage Brush Parson When the train stopped at Battle Mountain, a certain morning in May, 1881, there was only one passenger to alight. He presented a remarkable appearance, even in that place and at that time. The other passengers might be forgiven for putting their heads out of the window to look at him, nor was it strange that the station agent, rolling his quid into the other cheek, stood at gaze, as the newcomer stepped briskly towards him. Tall, slender, with the bend at the shoulders which betrays the student, the eager stoop of one who drinks thirstily of his books and long, intent on what he saw, alive to his fingertips, he came striding forward, his large, dark eyes glowing in the pallor of so much of his face as showed above the silken black beard veiling the lower half. He was clothed in clerical black, all but his hat. That was Nevada´s, the cowboy´s, the miners, a soft, golden-brown sombrero, giving him a brigandish look which ill consorted with his large, gentle, melancholy eyes.
