Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


Then the woman did a strange thing. Making no resistance, but
maintaining her hold on the girl's hair, she stood still and
calmly began to scream. The scream was hideously compounded of
fright and fear. Yet in her face was neither fright nor fear. She
regarded Billy coolly and appraisingly, as if to see how he took
it--her scream merely the cry to the clan for help.


"Aw, shut up, you battleax!" Bert vociferated, trying to drag her
off by the shoulders.
