Quotation from: Nostromo: A Tale of the Seaboard

Written by: Joseph Conrad


Don Jose Avellanos had known this forgiveness.


He was broken in health and fortune deplorably enough to present a truly
gratifying spectacle to the supreme chief of democratic institutions.
He retired to Sulaco. His wife had an estate in that province, and she
nursed him back to life out of the house of death and captivity. When
she died, their daughter, an only child, was old enough to devote
herself to "poor papa."
