{{Tr|an anonymous hand}} This appears to be the same translation as the 1887 anonymous translation first published by Sampson Low as The Clipper of the Clouds. This translation begins: BANG! Bang! The pistol shots were almost simultaneous. A cow peacefully grazing fifty yards away received one of the bullets in her back. She had nothing to do with the quarrel all the same. Neither of the adversaries was hit.
