Amistad 14

We didn't say a word, just clung to each other, both of us crying, even though Miss Elizabeth never cried. No matter all that had happened to me -finding the ichies and plesies, going with Colonel Birch to the orchard, meeting Monsieur Prévost- this was the lightning that signaled my greatest happiness, in all my life.
