text_original: There was a passage, between two of the mean little houses. But so narrow an one that, if we had not been on the look out for it, we should have passed it by unnoticed. Such was the darkness that we could not see six feet down it, so that it was impossible to tell where it led to, or what was at the end. I did not like the idea of venturing into it at all.
