Mu 1790, panali Mfalansa wina dzina lake Sifrac, yemwe anali wanzeru kwambiri.

Tsiku lina akuyenda mumsewu ku Paris.Mvula inali itagwa dzulo lake, ndipo kunali kovuta kwambiri kuyenda mumsewu.Nthawi yomweyo ngolo inagubuduka pambuyo pake. Msewu unali wopapatiza, ndipo chotengeracho chinali chachikulu, ndipo Sifra.canapulumuka pogundidwa nalo, koma linakutidwa ndi matope ndi mvula.Anzakewo atamuona, anamumvera chisoni, ndipo analumbira mwaukali ndipo anafuna kuimitsa ngoloyo kuti akambirane.Koma Sifracanang’ung’udza, “Imani, imani, ndipo alekeni apite.”

Pamene ngoloyo inali patali, iye anaimabe wosayenda m’mphepete mwa msewu, n’kumaganiza kuti: “Njirayi ndi yopapatiza, ndipo anthuwo ali ochuluka, + n’chifukwa chiyani ngoloyo siisintha?Chotengeracho chidulidwe pakati pa msewu, ndipo mawilo anayiwo akhale mawilo awiri…Anaganiza choncho napita kunyumba kukakonza.Pambuyo poyesa mobwerezabwereza, mu 1791 "gudumu la akavalo lamatabwa" loyamba linamangidwa.Njinga yakale kwambiri inali yamatabwa ndipo inali yophweka.Inalibe galimoto kapena chiwongolero, choncho wokwerayo anakankhira pansi mwamphamvu ndi mapazi ake ndipo anayenera kutsika kuti asunthe njingayo posintha kumene akupita.

Ngakhale zili choncho, pamene Sifracanatenga njingayo kukazungulira pakiyo, aliyense anadabwa komanso anachita chidwi.
