1 Bar K
сущ.; собст.; SK, DT 4Название участка земли, где некогда располагалось ранчо Гарбера, одно из фермеров феода. После большого пожара ранчо было заброшено, но там уцелели несколько строений. В них и поселили прибывших в Меджис по поручению Альянса юнцов (ка-тет Роланда), подальше от стратегически важных объектов в окрестностях Хэмбри, таких как Ситго и Спуск, и самого города.The Bar K was a deserted spread of land northwest of town, not too far from that weird squalling canyon. They burned at the mouth of the canyon every fall, and once, six or seven years ago, the wind had shifted and gone back wrong and burned most of the Bar K to the ground—barns, stables, the home place. It had spared the bunkhouse, however, and that would be a good spot for three tenderfeet from the Inners. It was away from the Drop; it was also away from the oil patch. — “Полоса К” – участок брошенной земли к северо-западу от города, неподалеку от говорящего каньона. В устье каньона каждую осень сжигали сучья, но шесть или семь лет назад ветер переменился, и стена огня пошла на “Полосу К”. Сгорело все – дом, конюшни, амбары. Остался только бункер. Рейнолдс решил, что поселить там троицу из Внутренних феодов – отличная идея. Подальше от Спуска, подальше от нефтяного поля. (ТБ 4)
There’s a spread northwest of here, the Bar K. Used to b’long to the Garber family, but they gave it up and moved on after a fire. Now it b’longs to the Horsemen’s Association—that’s a little local group of farmers and ranchers. I spoke to Francis Lengyll about you fellows—he’s the H.A. president just current—and he said ‘We’ll put em out to the old Garber place, why not?’ — К северо-западу отсюда есть пустующий участок земли, “Полоса К”. Он принадлежал семье Гарбер, но они продали его после пожара. Теперь им владеет Ассоциация конезаводчиков – группа местных фермеров и ранчеров. Я говорил о вас с Френсисом Ленджиллом, он сейчас президент Ассоциации… и он сказал: “Мы поселим их на ранчо Гарберов, почему нет?” (ТБ 4)
