Synopsis
Excerpt from A Hoosier in Honduras
Only the voice of the wind was heard as it rattled the windows and shook the doors, now shrieking with rage, now moaning in despair to find every opening stoutly locked against it - such was the day when the shivering carrier, half blinded by the storm, brought the brief message referred to.
According to the terms of the invitation, there seemed but one thing to do, - therefore a letter of acceptance was penned and posted.
In about two weeks came the reply. He now wrote more fully, even enclosing a catalogue of articles necessary to the com fort of travelers in a tropical wilderness, among which were slickers to protect us from the storms on the mountains, saddles, blankets, leggings, spurs, hammocks, a Chest of medicine, a small selection of books, a bundle Of newspapers, a great variety of canned goods, with a lot of cordials put up in large long-necked bottles, these were only to be used in cases of emergency, - Of course. The list also included a stock of rubber goods to protect us from dampness when sailing those Sunny Summer Seas which he now admitted became quite rough at times when teased by the vagrant winds that loaf around in those latitudes.
