We will substitute our narrative¹ for that of the ranchero, who, indeed, was ignorant of many of the details, only knowing the facts which had been related to himself. We will go back to the precise moment when Oliver—for the reader has of course recognized him in don Jaime—parted from do?a Dolores and the count, at a distance of about two leagues from the hacienda del Arenal. Do?a Dolores and the persons who accompanied her, did not reach the hacienda till a few minutes before sunset. Don Andrés, alarmed by this lengthened² ride, received them with marks of the most lively joy: but he had noticed them a long way off, and on seeing Leo Carral with them, he had been reassured³.

"Do not remain any longer out of doors, Count," he said to Ludovic, with a thoroughly⁴ paternal⁵ anxiety. "I can understand all the pleasure you of course feel in galloping⁶ by the side of that madcap, Dolores; but you do not know this country, and may lose your way. Moreover, the roads are at this moment infested⁷ with marauders belonging to all the parties that divide the unhappy republic; and these pícaros have no more scruple⁸ in firing at a gentleman, than in killing⁹ a coyote."

"I believe your fears are exaggerated, sir: we have had a delightful¹⁰ ride, and nothing of a suspicious nature has occurred to trouble it."
