     summary: But these old scenes were in places so remote and inaccessible that I was forced to forego the pleasure of visiting them; but in many other places I found the old familiar landmarks gone, and the transformations of time had placed in their stead forms and faces new and strange. Although San Francisco is pervaded by the business activity of a great commercial metropolis, it is not possessed of the spirit of excessive drudgery in the hot pursuit of the almighty dollar which prevails in many other places.

     summary: It does not do to treat blind men in the lump; they must be handled individually.

Max, said Mr Carlyle, with emotion, is there any reason why you should not send your man for a police officer and have this monster arrested on his own confession without further delay? Pray do so, Mr Carrados, acquiesced Drishna.
