This was the mood of the American people, the questions they asked themselves. The answers came from the press and the many politicians. In New England, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge warned in a speech that America would be wise to enter the race for its share of the "Waste Places of the Earth."
The sun was high, but almost unseen by the struggling band of men who moved slowly through the chlorophylic half-light of the sullen almost impregnable beauty of the jungle. The call of the tropical cuckoo, answered by the cooing of the wood-doves made strange, unfamiliar noises to Brenten's ears. The noises should have been strange, if not unfamiliar, to Juan Gomez and his men as well, for they were not the cries of birds, but the signals of men...Spanish snipers, perched high in trees, hidden from view. Suddenly, the terrifying sound of a Mauser bullet came winging through leaves and bushes, rising to a shrill cresendo, then sinking with a moan followed by a loud chug when it hit human flesh. Brenten, wide-eyed, saw the skull of the man three feet in front of his explode with a force that spewed brain and bone on his face and chest.
It's her! His mind reeled, confused. The same face as in the dream. Bur was it a dream? How could it have been? Surely, not. Or is this heaven? Gently, he moved his head forward until their lips touched, hers' soft and yielding, parted in sleep. Reluctantly, he separated from her, and looked searchingly into deep pools of ebony, now wide in wonderment.
Brenten spoke in Spanish. "Come and get me, you big Gorilla," he shouted, "I'll not use the gun. I beat you once without one; I can do it again." This said to distract Armas: keep him unaware of what was fast approaching from behind. Suddenly, the train's engine entered the tunnel; Brenten spun around and dropped spread-eagle to the catwalk. He wanted his head facing away from any flying objects.
