"After the death of Senor Juan Gallardo, a respectable cobbler with a shop under an archway in the suburb of La Feria, his wife Senora Angustias mourned his loss with suitable grief; but at the same time in her heart of hearts she felt the relief of someone who rests after a long march, or lays down an overwhelming burden."
From "Blood And Sand", by Vicente Blasco Ibanez.
Editor's note: Did you know this same author wrote "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse?" I didn't.
