Found at Blazing Star
excerpt from the book..The rain had only ceased with the gray streaks of morning at BlazingStar, and the settlement awoke to a moral sense of cleanliness, and thefinding of forgotten knives, tin cups, and smaller camp utensils, wherethe heavy showers had washed away the debris and dust heaps before thecabin doors.

Possibly this may have beenthe reason why early risers in that locality, during the rainy season,adopted a thoughtful habit of body, and seldom lifted their eyes to therifted or india-ink washed skies above them.
