Reseña del editor
The hall was a great effort of the decorators art; the people were faultlessly dressed; those present represented the wealth and fashion of the Western Canaoian ranching world. It was the annual ball of the Polo Qub, and that was a social function of the first water in the eyes of the Calford world. My dear Mrs. A bbot, it is a matter which is quite out of my province, said John A llandale, in answer to a remark from his companion. He was leaning over the cushioned back of the Chesterfield upon which an old lady was seated, and gazing smilingly over at a group of young people standing at the opposite end of the room. Jacky is one of those young ladies whose strength of character carries her beyond the control of mere man. Yes, it is true Im her uncle and guardian, but, nevertheless, I should no more dream of interfering with her what shall we say? love affairs than suggest her incapacity to boss a round up worked by a crowd of Mexican greasers. Then all I can say is that your niece is a very unfortimate girl, replied the old lady acidly, How old is she? Twenty-two. John A llandale, or Poker John, as he was more familiarly called by all who knew him, was still looking over at the group.
