[The Man From Glengarry by Ralph Connor]@TWC D-Link bookThe Man From Glengarry CHAPTER II 1/21
VENGEANCE IS MINE The Glengarry men had fought their fight, and it only remained for their foes to wreak their vengeance upon them and wipe out old scores.
One minute more would have done for them, but in that minute the door came crashing in.
There was a mighty roar, "Glengarry! Glengarry!" and the great Macdonald himself, with the boy Ranald and some half-dozen of his men behind him, stood among them.
On all hands the fight stopped.
A moment he stood, his great head and shoulders towering above the crowd, his tawny hair and beard falling around his face like a great mane, his blue eyes gleaming from under his shaggy eyebrows like livid lightning. A single glance around the room, and again raising his battle-cry, "Glengarry!" he seized the nearest shrinking Frenchman, lifted him high, and hurled him smashing into the bottles behind the counter.
