Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


The fleeing woman stumbled in rounding the end of a picnic bench,
and would have been caught had she not seized Mary's arm to
recover balance, and then flung Mary full into the arms of the
woman who pursued. This woman, largely built, middle-aged, and
too irate to comprehend, clutched Mary's hair by one hand and
lifted the other to smack her. Before the blow could fall, Billy
had seized both the woman's wrists.


"Come on, old girl, cut it out," he said appeasingly. "You're in
wrong. She ain't done nothin'."
