Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dragon´s Daughter Louie Toy, musing in the doorway of the Canton Bazaar, was awakened from a brocaded dream of Cathay by the sharp crack of a revolver and, as his slanting eyes widened, a slight figure darted around the corner of Clay street and, after a hesitant glance at the Chinaman, stumbled over his threshold and leaned, breathing brokenly, against a glass show-case. "Madre Dios," he panted, "they will kill!" Louie Toy turned, stood for a moment, and something stirred within him, something which the Celestial could not analyze. The figure was so pitiful, so diminutive, so broken. A Mexican, scarcely more than a boy, olive-skinned face streaked with dirt, eyes, longlashed eyes, rolling appealingly, an almost Oriental cast of features.
