Quote 1

""It's all plain enough, now. When you talked about notching ears and slitting noses I judged that that was your own embellishment, because white men don't take that sort of revenge. But an Injun! That's a different matter altogether." (30.36)

The Welshman shows just how deeply ingrained racial prejudices can be.
