They literally lined up the settlers along an imaginary line, and they fired off a gun, and the settlers roared across the countryside and put down a stake, and wherever they put down that stake, that was their new home.
Dispuseram os colonos numa linha imaginária, e dispararam uma espingarda. Os colonos correram aos gritos pelo campo e espetaram as suas estacas. Onde quer que espetassem as estacas era aí que passava a ser o seu novo lar.
