Excerpt from Villa Glori: Ricordi ed Aneddoti dell'Autunno 1867
Sostammo a Livorno la notte per riprendere di buon mattino il treno maremmano. I carabinieri alla stazione non ci diedero noia. A noi però sem brava ci tenessero d'occhio e non respirammo liberamente che quando il treno si mosse.
A Montalto visita doganale. Un ricevitore sfo glio due o tre volte una Guida d' Italia che gli si affaccio nell'aprire la mia sacca, poi mi die una sbirciata di sottecchi. Forse volea scrutare nel mio volto un possibile lettore di libri proibiti.
