All day long city councilors would go trotting back and forth from the City Hall to the Brull patio. The few enemies don Ramón had in the Council meddlers, doña Bernarda called them idiots who swallowed everything in print provided it were against the King and religion attacked the cacique persistently, censuring everything he did. Don Ramón's henchmen would tremble with impotent rage.
Their first maneuver was to give the Negro a bad reputation and denounce as mischievous meddlers those who insisted that he be dealt with justly.

There is no end to the squabbles as to who shall take the lead in relieving Gertruydenberg."

"You mustn't think I can't sympathize," she informed him, in the clear tone he recognized as the appropriate one for an advanced woman who sees a task before her "damned meddlers," he was accustomed to call them in his sessions of silent thought "you mustn't think I'm not prepared. I've heard lectures on it, and since Dick sent me your letter I've read more or less." "My letter!" groaned Raven.
