Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


After they left Post's on the way back to Carmel, the condition
of the road proved the wisdom of their rejection of the
government land. They passed a rancher's wagon overturned, a
second wagon with a broken axle, and the stage a hundred yards
down the mountainside, where it had fallen, passengers, horses,
road, and all.


"I guess they just about quit tryin' to use this road in the
winter," Billy said. "It's horse-killin' an' man-killin', an' I
can just see 'm freightin' that marble out over it I don't
think."
