<Back on the
road to Anga we passed the night on the bank of the Chulym.
Everyone dragged to the village but I decided to stay with out guide, old man
Likhachev, and his son Ilyusha...>
"A good
while ago I had sugar in my tea," <Likhachev said.> And my
Ilyusha perhaps doesn't even remember
its taste. You gave us a treat. Shared the uttermost... Thank you, a kindly soul... But
bear in mind my advice, keep yours for yourself. Poverty made people brutal,
nobody will share anything with you, nobody will help, nobody will spare you...
