In Indian Mexico (1908)

CHAPTER XVI
12/25

It was after five before we reached San Bartolome.

Watching this magnificent sunset, we sat down before the old church, and almost instantly a crowd gathered to see what the strangers might want.

Don Romualdo, in wandering through the village, found a _temascal_ in use, and hurrying to us, led us to see the method of its use.
