Reading for pleasure and reflection

The Headless Horseman
by Thomas Mayne Reid

Chapter I

On the great prairie of Texas the hot sun is shining in the blue sky. Under the golden light appears a group of wagons. There are 10 of them. In the wagons there are provisions, clothes, furniture; coloured women and children are sitting in them; the men are walking by the wagons or behind them. In front there is a carriage. This caravan belongs to a rich planter who has bought some land in the west and is now travelling to his new estate which is called Casa del Corvo, or the House of the Curve.

The planter himself Woodley Poindexter is riding at the head of the caravan. He is a tall thin man of fifty, with a proud face. Two horsemen are tiding together with him one on the right, the other on the left a youth of about 20, the planters son Henry, and a young man 6 or 7 years older his nephew Cassias Calhoun. The youth has an open cheerful face. He is dressed in a blue shirt and blue trousers. His cousin wears a military uniform. He is an officer in the army. His face is proud and sinister. In the carriage there are two passengers: Louise, the daughter of Woodley Poindexter and her maid.

The caravan moves on slowly. There is no road. There are only the tracks of some wagons that have passed before. The planter hopes to reach the end of his journey before night. Suddenly the caravan stops. Far as the eye can reach the country is of one colour black. There has been a fire in the prairie and all the grass is burnt. The travellers began to cross the burnt place and lost their way. They stopped because they did not know in what direction to move. As they were standing there and thinking what to do they saw a man on horseback who was riding towards them. The stranger soon came up to the planter. I see you have lost your way. he said. Yes, sir. answered the planter.

My name is Woodley Poindexter. I have bought some land on the Leona river, near Fort Inge. We hoped to reach the place before night. Can we do so?

Of course, if you do what I tell you.

The stranger was sitting on a good horse. He was a young man not more than 25 with a pleasant face. He was dressed in Mexican style. He had a large sombrero on his head and sarape on his shoulders. I am sorry, Mr Poindexter, I cant go with you because I am in a hurry. You follow the track of my, lasso. With these words the young man threw one end of his long lasso on the ground, said goodbye and rode forward. The track of his lasso was easily seen on the black ground, and the caravan moved slowly on. Look, father, what is that? said Henry suddenly. They looked back d saw great black columns behind them. They were moving towards the wagons. The sky was now dark. Suddenly they saw the stranger in front of them. He had come back.

Drive faster, faster! he cried as he rode up. But the horses were tired.

What is it? asked the planter, Is there a danger?

Yes, there is, said the young man. It is the Northern is dangerous, intercepted Calhoun, who didnt like the young man.

You will soon see that it is, sir, Mr Poindexter, I tell you that you are in danger.

Quick, sir: order your men to muffle the horses heads or the dust will get in their eyes, the animals will be blinded and go mad.All the men must get inside.

He rode up to the carriage. Madam, he said to the planters daughter, you must close all the curtains. You, gentlemen, he said to Henry and Calhoun, and you, sir, to Poindexter, must get inside. Lose no time. In a few seconds the storm will be here. The men got inside the carriage. The young man tied his horses eyes. Then he took off his scarf and tied his sombrero to his head. No pen can describe what followed. One of the black columns approached the caravan and broke. A shower of black dust came down. In another moment the Northern was around them.

Nothing more was seen, nothing more was heard, except the noise of the wind. The travellers remained in the carriage more than an hour. At last they were allowed to come out. Sir, said the planter, we must thank you for for . Our lives, Father! cried Henry. I hope, sir, youll tell us your name. Maurice Gerald, said the stranger, but at the Fort they know me better as Maurice the mustanger. Now I must say good bye, but you will find your way by the track of my lasso.

On the bank of a little river, in a picturesque place some distance from Fort Inge there was a little hut with a roof of grass and a door of horse skin. Near the hut was a corral for wild horses-mustangs. The furniture of the hut consisted of a bed, two stools, a table. Such was the home of the mustanger. A man, not the mustanger himself, was sitting on one of the stools. He was talking to a big dog which was lying on a piece of horse skin. Oh, Tara, wouldnt you like to be back in Ireland, in the old castle? I myself would like to be there. But who knows when the young master will go back and take us with him! Never mind, Tara! He is going to the Fort again soon, and he has promised to take us with him. He says hell go there as soon as he catches that spotted mustang. Hush! Whats that?

Phelim! came a voice from outside.

Phelim! The dog ran to the door.

Its the master. said Phelim and followed the dog.

Phelim was right. It was the voice of his master, Maurice Gerald. When the servant went out, he saw Maurice on horseback. His master was not alone. At the end of the lasso was a captive. It was a mustang of dark chocolate colour with white spots. Hooray! cried Phelim. You have caught the spotted mustang at last. The mustang was put into the shed. Maurice went into the hut and threw himself on the bed. He was tired. Suddenly Tara began to bark. Phelim looked out and said, Its old Zeb Stump. Zeb Stump was a tall man of about fifty, big and strong. He was a hunter and a great friend of the mustanger.

Good evening, Mr Stump. said Maurice. Come in and take a seat.

Will you have something to eat? Phelim will make supper.

Im sorry I cant offer you anything very good I havent hunted for a long time. I was very busy: I was trying to catch a very curious mustang.

What kind of mustang? asked the hunter with interest. A mustang of dark chocolate colour with white spots. Why, young man! Thats the very business about which I have come to you. Indeed! I have seen that mustang, and I wanted to tell you to try and catch it. Ill tell you why. Ive been to the Fort. Well, there is a man there. I knew him before. His name is Poindexter.

Poindexter?

Yes. He is a rich planter. He has come from the Mississippi with his nephew Calhoun by name, who is also rich and he gives money to his uncle, and he has his reason for it. They have a big estate near the Leona river. It is called Casa del Corvo. Now, young man Ill tell you why I wanted to see you. That planter has a daughter who is fond of horses. She heard how I told the old man about the spotted mustang. She wanted to have it, and her father promised to give two hundred dollars for the animal. So I went to you. Catch that mustang and youll get the money. The young man took the hunter to the shed and showed him the mustang. Why, you have caught it already! Miss Poindexter will be pleased! And youll have your two hundred dollars.

Dining out

- Lets go out for dinner tonight. Its been ages since weve been out.

- Good idea. Where do you feel like going?

-Oh, I dont know. How about the Golden Dragon?

- No, lets forget about being health conscious today. Im in the mood for something heavier than stir-fried meat and vegetables. Theres a new Italian place somebody at work was raving about.

- No, all that pasta and those rich saucer are too heavy for me- too many calories. Lets look in the Dining Guide in the newspaper Hmm, this Japanese place has good reviews.

- Nah, that raw fish we had last time wasnt bad, but

-This place is different. They cut up the food and cook it in front of you. Its supposed to be quite a show.

- How about steak or roast beef?

- Theyre easy enough to cook at home. Seafood?

- Too fishy. Mexican food?

- This spicy food always gives me heartburn. Maybe some good onion soup?

- Or pizza?

- No, too close to junk food.

- How about that German pplace in Mane Street?

A good, hearty meat and potatoeeees dinner.

- Heres something that sounds interesting The Great Smorgasbord- they say have something for everyone.

- Great, lets go.

My Favourite Room

My favourite room is our kitchen. Perhaps the kitchen is the most important room in many houses, but it is particularly so in our house because its not only where we cook and eat but its also the main meeting place for family and friends.

I have so many happy memories of times spent there: special occasions such as homecomings or cooking Christmas dinner; troubled times, which lead to comforting cups of tea in the middle of the night; ordinary daily events such as making breakfast on dark, cold winter mornings for sleepy children before sending them off to school, then sitting down to read the newspaper with a steaming hot mug of coffee.

So what does this special room look like? Its a modern and spacious kitchen, nice and clean with a lot of cupboards. There is a fridge, a cooker, a sink and a dishwasher. Its quite big, but not huge. Its big enough to have a good-sized rectangular table in the centre, which is the focal point of the room. There is a large window with lovely plants above the sink,which looks out onto two apple trees in the garden. The cooker is at one end, and above it is a pot holder with skillets, sauce and frying pans. At the other end is a fridge which tells the story of our lives, past, present and future, in words and pictures: a school photo of Megan and Kate, a postcard from our friends in Australia, the menu from a take-away Chinese restaurant, a wedding invitation for next Saturday. All our world is there for everyone to read!

Our kitchen is stuffed with cookware and utensils, small appliances and comfortable gadgets which help us to cook and enjoy delicious meal as well.

The front door is seldom used in our house, only by strangers. All our friends use the back door, which means they come straight into the kitchen and join in whatever is happening there. The kettle goes on immediately and then we all sit round the table, drinking tea and talking about world problems and events. Without doubt some of the happiest times of my life have been spent in our cosy kitchen.

Organizing Kitchen Clutter

Do you spend more time in the kitchen than you really need to? One reason may be poor organization. While the design of your kitchen may be far from ideal, there are things you can do to make your time more efficient and pleasant.

If youre the lucky person with a large and spacious kitchen, you may find that you spend a good deal of time walking from appliances to work center and back again. Solve this predicament by keeping cookware, utensils, and small appliances close to where they are used. Keep the coffee pot near the sink, baking pans near the oven, sauce pans and skillets near the range, microwavable cookware near the microwave, and rarely used appliances out of sight.

If your problem is a small kitchen, you will want the most of minimal storage space by being as inventive as possible. Set up shelves where space permits, and invest in a spice rack (be sure to hang it in a cool, dark place not near stove). Attach hooks to the back of cabinet doors for pot holders and dish towels. Purchase small kitchen appliances that can be suspended from the bottom of cabinets.

Try to avoid buying too many kitchen gadgets. A few basic pieces of equipment, such as high-quality knives, can do the job of several gadgets and take up much less space.

The Chef

Hugo Wilson, 28, has been a professional chef for three years. His father, George, owns a two-hundred-acre farm in Devon. The family have farmed in Devon for over three hundred years.

 

I think Ive always been interested in food.My grandparents (on my mothers side) lived in a huge old manor house in Lincolnshire and they had a wonderful cook. She made fantastic standard English food: her roast beef and Yorkshire pudding was out of this world. I used to love going down to the kitchen and watching her work, and I picked up a lot of cooking tips from her. I realized that I wanted to be a cook when I was about 12. I went to a boarding school and when other boys chose to do sport, I chose cookery.

By the time I was 15, I had taken over the cooking at home for my parents dinner parties, and I had started to make up my own recipes. I knew my parents would not approve of cooking as a career, so I decided to introduce them slowly to the idea. I told them that I wanted to do a cookery course for fun, and I went for a month to a hotel in Torquay. I enjoyed it so much, I knew I couldnt put off telling my parents any longer, so I brought the subject up one night over dinner. At first there was silence, and then my father asked me why. I explained that cooking was like painting a picture or writing a book. Every meal was an act of creation. I could see that my father was not convinced, but he didnt get angry, he just patted me on the shoulder and smiled. My mother kissed me. And now that I have opened my own restaurant and play a part of the Chef, I think they are proud of me. However, my grandfather (on my fathers side) is not so kind, he thinks Im mad to have given up farming. But I delight with my job!
