Конечно, я сказал, что поеду с матерью, и, конечно, все они закричали на наше безрассудство, но даже тогда ни один мужчина не пошел бы с нами. Все, что они сделают, - это дадут мне заряженный пистолет, чтобы на нас не напали, и пообещают оседлать лошадей на случай, если нас будут преследовать по возвращении, а один парень поедет к доктору в поисках вооруженной помощи.
