Marlow was in a tramp with an armed escort of lank zanzibaris, very hospitable and festive-not to say drunk.
Marlow went to a interview for a work in a very important station and the manager was very curious.
This curious man did not ask Marlow to sit down after his twenty-mile walk that morning.
This curious manager said to Marlow:¨every agent, in the station, he was heard to say, men who come out here should have no entrails.

Summary HoD
Marlow went to a small station where he meets with a miracle man who was the company´s chief accountant. All the bookkeeping was
done at this station.
The next day he meets with Mr. Kurtz, or Hang Sang. He realizes that this man had a manufactured products
stream. This goes to the centre of the jungle and then this people goes out
with some precious ivory.
I think that the ivory is very beautiful bat the way
of extracting it is in a very bad way. I think that later it haves to change
this way extracting the marfil from the corn of the elephant because it is very
sad the way of extracting the marfil because you have to kill the elephants and
that is not good.
Marlow realized that Mr. Kurtz was ill because the
rumors and the things that some ’black’ people says to him and also because the
things that he saw in the station.
Not only those persons talked about Mr. Kurtz also his
manager and very close people.
For Marlow to have more clear the things he asked to
the brick-maker of the station he answered: ´´The chief of the Inner Station
,today he is the chief of the best station, then he will be assistant manager,
two years ,more …´´
The Imperialism can be seen in the stream of manufactured products because this work, of carrying things, is done by the ´´black´´people.
