The Mission or Scenes in Africa
Author: Frederick Marryat
The Mission or Scenes in Africa – The Expedition – It was in the autumn of the year 1828, that an elderly and infirm gentleman was slowly pacing up and down in a large dining-room.
He had apparently finished his dinner, although it was not yet five o’clock, and the descending sun shone bright and warm through the windows, which were level with the ground, and from which there was a view of a spacious park, highly ornamented with old timber.
He held a newspaper in one hand, and had the other behind his back, as if for support, for he was bent forward, and looked very feeble and emaciated.
Warmest Regards, Coyalita Linville
