The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Light of Western Stars by Zane Grey: Alfred and his minister arrived at the ranch in the big white
car. They appeared considerably wind-blown. In fact, the
minister was breathless, almost sightless, and certainly hatless.
Alfred, used as he was to wind and speed, remarked that he did
not wonder at Nels's aversion to riding a fleeting cannon-ball.
The imperturbable Link took off his cap and goggles and,
consulting his watch, made his usual apologetic report to
Madeline, deploring the fact that a teamster and a few stray
cattle on the road had held him down to the manana time of only a
mile a minute.
Arrangements for the wedding brought Alfred's delighted approval.
