The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Rezanov by Gertrude Atherton: about the maddened bull, set his hide thick with ar-
rows, tripped him with the lasso. A wiry little
Mexican in yellow, galloping in on his mustang, ad-
ministered the coup de grace amidst the wild
applause of the spectators, whose shouting and
clapping and stamping might have been heard by
the envious guard at the Presidio and Yerba Buena.
As the party on the corridor broke, Rezanov
found no difficulty in reaching Concha's side, for
even Dona Ignacia was chattering wildly with sev-
eral other good dames who renewed their youth
