Description

They will tell you in Anchuria, that President Miraflores, of that volatile republic, died by his own hand in the coast town of Coralio; that he had reached thus far in flight from the inconveniences of an imminent revolution; and that one hundred thousand dollars, government funds, which he carried with him in an American leather valise as a souvenir of his tempestuous administration, was never afterward recovered. Cabbages and Kings was O. Henry's first collection of short stories, published in 1904.

First Sentence

CORALLO reclined, in the mid-day heat, like some vacuous beauty lounging in a guarded harem.
