"Oh, senor coronel!" replies Jose, hat in hand, and trembling in every joint. "Pedrillo! Pobre Pedrillito!" "Well! Poor Pedrillito what of him? Has anything happened to him?"

The largest number of cattle was 10,558 in 1822, horses 1560 in 1822, mules 140 in 1817, sheep 14,000 in 1820. In 1836 Padre Moreno reported that when Coronel came all the available property was distributed among the Indians, except the grain, and of that they carried off more than half.

The exploits of the Emden were loudly praised; and the tragedy of Coronel was gloated over with satisfaction. "The Germans will win because they are brave," said Sadako.
Most remarkable had been the career of the German third-class cruiser Nürnberg, which had joined the other German ships that went to make up the German squadron which fought in this battle off Coronel.
The coronel raised the violin, tendered it to the others, accepted their pleas to play it himself, and for the next half hour acquitted himself with no mean ability. Snatches of long-forgotten operas and improvisations of his own flowed from the strings in smooth harmony, hinting at bygone years amid far different surroundings for which his soul now hungered and to which he would return.
If they choose to go, I suggest that you place yourselves entirely in their hands and give them free rein. You would look far for better men." "And we're lucky to get them," Knowlton acquiesced.
