The memories and the dreams did not stop rather it progressed; “then his memories passed into dreams, and in his fancy the past was mingled with what was to come.

The second story ‘The Loaded dog’ is also set in the rural landscape in the outback of Australia, which is

Mark Twain believes that dogs are superior to man because out of all animals, man is the only one that is cruel enough to inflict pain on others just for the pleasure of doing it.
