 It is forty miles from Oakland to San Jose, and Saxon and Billy accomplished1 it in three easy days. No more obliging and angrily garrulous2 linemen were encountered, and few were the opportunities for conversation with chance wayfarers3. Numbers of tramps, carrying rolls of blankets, were met, traveling both north and south on the county road; and from talks with them Saxon quickly learned that they knew little or nothing about farming. They were mostly old men, feeble or besotted, and all they knew was work—where jobs might be good, where jobs had been good; but the places they mentioned were always a long way off. One thing she did glean4 from them, and that was that the district she and Billy were passing through was “small-farmer” country in which labor5 was rarely hired, and that when it was it generally was Portuguese6.
 
The farmers themselves were unfriendly. They drove by Billy and Saxon, often with empty wagons7, but never invited them to ride. When chance offered and Saxon did ask questions, they looked her over curiously8, or suspiciously, and gave ambiguous and facetious9 answers.
 
“They ain't Americans, damn them,” Billy fretted10. “Why, in the old days everybody was friendly to everybody.”
 
But Saxon remembered her last talk with her brother.
 
“It's the spirit of the times, Billy. The spirit has changed. Besides, these people are too near. Wait till we get farther away from the cities, then we'll find them more friendly.”
