Quotation from: A Set of Six

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"We found ourselves in a room with bare floor and walls. There was a
rough table and a couple of stools in it, nothing else whatever. An old
woman with her grey hair hanging loose wrung her hands when we appeared.
A peal of loud laughter resounded through the empty house, very amazing
and weird. At this the old woman tried to get past us.


"'Nobody to leave the room,' said General Robles to me.


"I swung the door to, heard the latch click, and the laughter became
faint in our ears.
