The following quotation is from Go Tell The Bees That I Am Gone by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 2021 All rights reserved. Chapter 77 City Of Brotherly Love


“Wait a moment. Thee should take this, I think.” Sylvia reached down and picked up a leather valise from the ground. It wasn’t new but had clearly been a piece of some quality in its prime. It smelled of apples.

“Och,” he said, realizing. He glanced at the Justice’s horse, which wasn’t at all happy with its burden, but not disposed to create a ruckus - not yet, anyway. “It’s his?”

“Yes - He - brought us food. Every time he came.”

Her eye lingered on the awkward shape, but her face was unreadable.

“That’s no a bad epitaph,” he told her, taking the valise. “When my time comes, I hope mine is as good. Mount up. I’ll take care of this.”
