-- Chapter 1-What is HTML?
HTML stands for "Hyper Text Mark-up Language"
HTML is the bricks and mortar of the WWW. Without HTML the
World Wide Web could not have become as important as it is today.
HTML is a document formatting language common the all computers on the WWW. html permits cross platform communication between
Macs, Apples, SUNs, PCs and others to view a document in a similar way. Every webpage that you visit uses HTML in some way, you can view the HTML code behind a website in Internet Explorer by selecting:
View > Source

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0

-- Chapter 2-Your first code
HTML has two sections, the "Head" section and the "Body" section.
The head section is where the information about the web page is put for the browser. This has nothing to do with the heading that you want to see on your web page.
Things that can be stored in the head section include Keywords for search engines or the title of your webpage.
The body section is where the web page is coded. This is where you put the information for your web page.
We are now going to create our very own webpage, for now we are going to create a simple page telling people your name.
Please follow these instructions:
1. Create a new folder so you have somewhere to save your website, call this folder anything you wish, this is where all pages and images for your website will be saved.
2. Open notepad and type the following code, you may change the code in red to suit your needs:
Type the following code into Notepad
<html>
<head>
<title>My Own Home Page </title>
</head>
<body>
<H1> I am Your-Name and this is my web Page! </H1>
</body>
</html>

3. That’s it! You have just coded your first webpage. Now save the notepad file by selecting "Save as" (make sure you save the file in the folder you have just created)

In the filename box type "index.html" and from the "Save as type" box select "All Files"
Then click "Save"
4. You are now ready to view your first webpage, navigate to the folder where you saved the file, double click on it and you will see your first webpage. It should look something like this:

Now we have created your first page, lets go to chapter 3 and look at colours!

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0

-- Chapter 3 -Adding colour
When you create a web page you will want to use different background and text colours and to add images. This makes the site more attractive to visitors and generally makes the website look better. Take care not to make the text and background colour the same! In this exercise we will change the background colour of your website you created in Chapter 2, to blue.
To do this you would add the following HTML code into the body of your text file. (To open your first website as a text file and not
HTML, open the HTML file and select "View>Source"):
<body bgcolor = "#0000FF">
Notice how instead of saying <body bgcolor = blue> We have used some strange looking code.
Don’t worry this is called "Hexadecimal colour" and can be used for inserting complex colours into your website.
Click HERE for a full list of colours and their Hexadecimal values.
If you are finding all of these different colour codes confusing don’t worry! As well as using the Hexadecimal method, you can also use good old-fashioned English! Meaning that placing the following code into your HTML file would have the exact same effect:
<body bgcolor = "blue">

©2006 Dan Thompson – All Rights Reserved

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0
When inserted into your code, the code should look like this:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Own Home Page </title>
</head>
<body>
<body bgcolor= "blue">
<H1> I am Your-Name and this is my web Page!</H1>
</body>
Test your file by saving it, remember to save it as "index.html" and make sure you select "All Files" from the save as type box.
Your website should now look something like this:

Now that we have our background colour sorted out, we can now alter the text colour.
We go about doing this in the same way. This is the code we need to insert into our webpage:
<font color="Red">Text that you want to make red goes here</font> Notice that you must put </font> after the text has ended. If you didn’t insert the </font> then your entire document would have the text as red. This isn’t too important for now but if you ever have more than one text colour on a page this may become a problem.

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0
Here is how your code should now look:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Own Home Page </title>
</head>
<body>
<body bgcolor= "blue">
<font color="Red">
<H1> I am Your-Name and this is my web Page!</H1>
</font>
</body>
IMPORTANT TIP: A common error when coding with colours and
HTML in general are simple spelling mistakes.
Remember that when typing "color" it is the American spelling, make sure you don’t use the English spelling "colour" or your HTML wont work.
Now lets move onto Chapter 4 and look at adding images

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0

-- Chapter 4-Adding Images
Adding an image is a simple way to make your website more attractive. For this exercise find any image you like, and put it into the same folder as the webpage. Rename your image to "myimage"
We are now going to insert the image underneath our text.
Once again open up your HTML file in notepad so you can see the code. This is what the code is going to look like:
<img src="myimage.gif"></a>
Notice that my image file is called "myimage.gif", your file may be
"myimage.jpg" or "myimage.bmp" depending on how you saved your picture. To find out what type of picture it is right click on the picture and select "Properties".
Once inserted your code will look like this:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Own Home Page </title>
</head>
<body>
<body bgcolor= "blue">
<font color="Red">
<H1> I am Your-Name and this is my web Page!</H1>
<img src="myimage.gif"></a>
</font>
</body>

Save your file and run it to view the results. Your page will look something like this:

IMPORTANT TIPS: Most websites will store their images in a separate folder called "images".
To show a picture from the images folder the code would look like this: <img src="/images/myimage.gif"></a>
You could try this now by creating a folder called images in the folder where your HTML file is saved. Here is an illustration:

-- Chapter 5-Links
Without links webpages are pretty pointless. "Links" as the name suggests, are used to link one page to another.
Links are very easy to create in HTML so lets get started.
1. First of all we need something to link to. If you feel that you need more practice in HTML then you can create a new page from scratch. If not just copy the page you have already created and give it a different name, eg. "Page1.html"
Remember that you still need to be saving everything into the same folder. 2. The HTML code for a link looks like this:
<a href="name of your page here">Text that you want the user to see here</a>
If you are linking to another website on the WWW then your link would look like this:
<a href="http://www.elpassobooks.co.uk">Visit El Passo
Books</a>
When the above line of code is run, this is what the user would see:
Visit El Passo Books
For now though we are going to link your "index.html" file to your
"Page1.html" file.
This is the code that needs to be placed in your "index.html" file
<a href="Page1.html">Click Here to go to my next page</a> ©2006 Dan Thompson – All Rights Reserved

- 11 -

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0
Have a look at the full code below to see where you should insert it:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Own Home Page </title>
</head>
<body>
<body bgcolor= "yellow">
<font color="Red">
<H1> I am Your-Name and this is my web Page!</H1>
<img src="images/myimage.gif">
<a href="Page1.html">Click Here for my next page</a>
</font>
</body>
TIP: Notice I have changed the background colour to yellow, this is because the default colour for a link in internet explorer is blue, obviously with a blue background the link is invisible
Here is what your page should look like:

When you click on the link you should be taken to "Page1.html", now for some practice at linking, why not try and put a link in
"Page1.html" back to "index.html"
When you are satisfied with that, lets go to chapter 6 - Using
Pictures as links.

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0

-- Chapter 6-Pictures as Links
Often when you visit a website, they will have some buttons that will act as links.
Eg:

1. You already have an image used in your first page so lets now make that a link. We are going to make it link to "Page1.html"
2. The HTML code for an image link looks like this:
<a href="Page1.html"><img src="images/yourpichere.jpg"></a> If you are linking to another website on the WWW then your link would look like this:
<a href="http://www.elpassobooks.co.uk"><img src="images/yourpichere.jpg"></a> When the above line of code is run, this is what the user would see:
(obviously your picture would be displayed not my "archive" button!) For now though we are going to link your "index.html" file to your
"Page1.html" file.
This is the code that needs to be placed in your "index.html" file
<a href="Page1.html"><img src="images/yourpichere.jpg"></a> Remember to change the red text to the location of your picture.
If your picture is in its own "Images" folder as discussed in a previous chapter then the above code would be used.
If it is in the same folder as your "index.html" file then the following code would be used:
<a href="Page1.html"><img src="yourpichere.jpg"></a>

©2006 Dan Thompson – All Rights Reserved

- 13 -

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0
Here is what your code should now look like:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Own Home Page </title>
</head>
<body>
<body bgcolor= "yellow">
<font color="Red">
<H1> I am Your-Name and this is my web Page!</H1>
<a href="Page1.html"><img src="images/myimage.gif"></a> <a href="Page1.html">Click Here for my next page</a>
</font>
</body>
That’s probably the easiest chapter in the book and shouldn’t have taken you too long.
Next up is Chapter 7 - Formatting!

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0

-- Chapter 7-Formatting
One of the most frustrating parts of HTML for beginners is simple formatting. Such as starting a new sentence on a new line, or aligning text to the left, right or middle.
I’m am now going to show you the basics of formatting.
1. Try and copy the following paragraph into your html document, then run it and see what result you get: (if you are unable to copy/paste just insert lots of random text into your page but make sure you insert some spaces like I have done)
"This is a standard paragraph of text. Nothing to see here just typing some words for an HTML formatting example.
HTML formatting can be difficult for novice users, so hopefully you will find this chapter as painless as possible.
This is a cheap plug in a paragraph of text for my website www.elpassobooks.co.uk. If you find this guide helpful then you can have a look at my website for more great web guides written by me! End of my meaningless paragraph of text!"
2. When you run your HTML file you should find it looks something like this:

Notice how although we left spaces between each sentence in our original paragraph, when we tried to view them in HTML there are no spaces, everything is just one massive paragraph.

©2006 Dan Thompson – All Rights Reserved

- 15 -

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0
3. To fix it we must use the following HTML tags:
<p> - This is used for when you would like to start a new paragraph
<br> - A page break, this is used for starting a new line
Don’t worry if this is all confusing, here is the paragraph again with the HTML tags, paste it into your document and then run it to see the results.
<p> "This is a standard paragraph of text. <br>Nothing to see here just typing some words for an HTML formatting example.<p>
HTML formatting can be difficult for novice users, so hopefully you will find this chapter as painless as possible. <p>
This is a cheap plug in a paragraph of text for my website www.elpassobooks.co.uk. If you find this guide helpful then you can have a look at my website for more great web guides written by me! <p>
End of my meaningless paragraph of text!"
If you want to experiment try running it again but this time move around the <p>`s and <br>`s to see what effect they have on your paragraph. Remember practice makes perfect!
Here is how your page should now look:

4. This is a long chapter but don’t worry your about half way through! Now we are going to look at aligning the text (Note - this method can be used on pictures, Flash and any other objects of your website) Aligning things is simple in HTML, these are the following tags to be used: <center>Text to be centered here</center>
<p align =left>Text to be aligned left here</align>
<p align =right>Text to be aligned right here</align>
Lets try it out on our paragraph. Try and use the above tags to align your paragraph to the left, right and center.
Here is what mine now looks like:

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0
If you are struggling here is my code, have a look at the red parts and see if yours is the same: (notice I have also centered the image) <html>
<head>
<title>My Own Home Page </title>
</head>
<body>
<body bgcolor= "yellow">
<font color="Red">
<H1> I am Your-Name and this is my web Page!</H1>
<center> <a href="Page1.html"><img src="images/myimage.gif"></a> </center>
<a href="Page1.html">Click Here for my next page</a>
<center> <p>"This is a standard paragraph of text. <br>Nothing to see here just typing some words for an HTML formatting example.<p> </center>
<p align = right> HTML formatting can be difficult for novice users, so hopefully you will find this chapter as painless as possible.<p>
</align>
<p align = left> This is a cheap plug in a paragraph of text for my website www.elpassobooks.co.uk. If you find this guide helpful then you can have a look at my website for more great web guides written by me!<p> </align>
<p align = right> End of my meaningless paragraph of text!"
</align>
</font>
</body>
TIP: The spelling "center" is American, if you use the English spelling "Centre" your HTML will not work.

5. Now for the final part of the chapter! Sizing, underlining and making your text bold.
There are a number of ways to alter the size of your text in HTML, I am going to show you what I feel is the easiest, you can use numbers ranging from 1 - 7 (1 is small, 7 is large)
THIS IS SIZE 1

THIS IS SIZE 2

THIS IS SIZE 3

THIS IS SIZE 4

THIS IS SIZE 5

THIS IS SIZE 6

THIS IS SIZE 7
Lets take our paragraph again, this time we will make the first paragraph size 5.
This is the code to be used:
<font size = 5> Your text goes here </font>
This is how your 1st paragraph of code should now look, don’t worry if you need to space out the HTML like I have done below:
<center>
<p>
<font size =5> "This is a standard paragraph of text. <br>Nothing to see here just typing some words for an HTML formatting example. </font>
<p>
</center>
You can obviously replace the number 5 with any number of your choice from 1 - 7. Experiment and see what results you get.

6. We are finally going to look at making our font Bold, Italic and
Underlined.
This is very simple, these are the following tags used:
<b>Look at me im Bold</b>
<i>Look at me im Italic</i>
<u>Look at me im Underlined</u>
Just like our other tags, the text you want to format goes inbetween the open <b> and closed </b> tags.
Try and use the three tags on your paragraph, experiment and see what results you get.
Again if you are struggling below is my HTML code:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Own Home Page </title>
</head>
<body>
<body bgcolor= "yellow">
<font color="Red">
<H1> I am Your-Name and this is my web Page!</H1>
<center><a href="Page1.html"><img src="images/myimage.gif"></a></center> <a href="Page1.html">Click Here for my next page</a>
<center>
<p>
<font size =5> <b> "This is a standard paragraph of text.
<br>Nothing to see here just typing some words for an HTML formatting example. </b> </font>
<p>
</center>
<p align = right> <i> HTML formatting can be difficult for novice users, so hopefully you will find this chapter as painless as possible.
</i> <p></align>
<p align = left> <u> This is a cheap plug in a paragraph of text for my website www.elpassobooks.co.uk. If you find this guide helpful then you can have a look at my website for more great web guides written by me! </u> <p></align>

Chapter 8 - Tables!

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0

-- Chapter 8-Tables
Tables come in very handy in HTML, not just for presenting data but also for designing the layout of your page.
As you are new to HTML I am going to show you how to create your own basic table. Many beginners find tables very daunting and I was no different, don’t worry if you don’t get it first time, keep trying and it will eventually all fall into place!
1. There are 3 main tags for the table we will be creating:
Table - <table>
Table Row - <tr>
Table Cell - <td>
I will now show you how to create the following table:
Cell1 Cell2
Cell3 Cell4
And here's the code:
<table border>
<tr>
<td>Cell 1</td>
<td>Cell 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell 3</td>
<td>Cell 4</td>
</tr>
</table>
As you can see, the first table row encloses cells 1 and 2; the

©2006 Dan Thompson – All Rights Reserved

- 22 -

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0 second table row encloses cells 3 and 4. Table rows always run horizontally. The contents of each cell - in this case, the words "Cell
1" or "Cell 2" - are sandwiched between the <td> and </td> tags.
In order to see the table, I added border to the table tag. This simply turns the border on. You can also specify its width by adding a number, as in <table border=5>.
"Colspan" and "rowspan"
You can also make a cell in one row stretch across two cells in another. Like this:
Cell 1
Cell 3 Cell 4
To accomplish this, you have to use the colspan modifier. Just add colspan=2 to the <td>, and voilà!
<table border>
<tr>
<td colspan=2>Cell 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell 3</td>
<td>Cell 4</td>
</tr>
</table>

You can also do this:
©2006 Dan Thompson – All Rights Reserved

- 23 -

Basic HTML by El Passo Books v2.0
Cell 1 Cell 2
Cell 3
Just add rowspan=2 to the <td>, like so:
<table border>
<tr>
<td rowspan=2>Cell 1</td>
<td>Cell 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Cell 3</td>
</tr>
</table>
Just remember: Rows run horizontally, columns run vertically. So if you want to stretch a cell horizontally, use colspan. To stretch a cell vertically, use rowspan.
Try inserting some of the HTML code into your own webpage, play around with the parameters and try adding new rows or columns.
If you would like a more detailed look at tables I can recommend

You now know all the basics to start creating your own website, but don’t leave just yet. The final two chapters are probably the most important. Chapter 9 contains a full list of all HTML Tags

A Happy Meal for a Happy Mind

...A Happy Meal for the Mind When I was a little girl I always thought it was a treat to visit McDonalds. This magical place had a giant play-place, ice cream, French fries and of course that special surprise toy contained inside the happy meal. What else could I have wanted? This world lost all of its glamour however, when I became a teen who experienced the inner workings of this land from the side of employment. I will never forget the place that was to be my first experience of the working world. My Fifteenth birthday had just passed and this meant I was finally old enough to enter the work force. So I went to the only place in the area that would hire a kid without experience or a driver’s license, McDonalds. Now, I wasn't entirely thrilled about the idea of working in this environment but if I wanted to get a car in the next year it was off to work for me. Somewhat sullenly, I donned my uniformed baseball cap and made my way behind the service counter. Feeling a little nervous, I fumbled as I attempted to tie my apron behind my back. I began to wonder what I might be assigned to do first. "Well, as long as I can work behind the scenes and avoid talking to people I should be okay." I thought. Standing motionless, I observed the fast-food frenzied scene. Employees were running here and there yelling to one another, order screens were flashing, various machines were buzzing...

Happy Feet and Disibilities

...Jasmine Zamora Professor Kristen Hassett EPSY 3360 December 1, 2014 Happy Feet Happy Feet is a movie that takes place in Antarctica amongst Empire penguins. The main character Mumble was just an egg when he is introduced. As his mother leaves the community to find food, Mumble father drops him; it is known that an egg must never be dropped because of the frigid temperature. Although it was unlikely for Mumble to hatch after the drop, he hatches and is livid with his feet. Mumble, in good spirits displays his unconventional talent. Not only was Mumble born with “happy feet” he was also born with the inability to sing. In order for penguins to mate, they must be able to serenade a female penguin. Without this important trait Mumble’s parents as well as the community are left in confusion. Possible causes of disabilities in children similar to Mumble would involve teratogens. “Teratogens are drugs, chemicals, or even infections that can cause abnormal fetal development. There are billions of potential teratogens but only a few agents are proven to have teratogenic effects,” (Pregnancy and Teratogens). Anything caused by an external force would be similar to the cause Mumble’s development. Teratogens can cause learning disabilities such as dyslexia and ADHD. Although it is not too obvious Mumble’s appearance is also different, he has a fluffy outer coat unlike his peers, and has blue eyes, and is smaller in size than the rest of his peers. Mumble’s development is similar...

Happy Birthday to You

..."Happy Birthday to You", also known more simply as "Happy Birthday", is a song that is traditionally sung to celebrate the anniversary of a person's birth. According to the 1998 Guinness Book of World Records, "Happy Birthday to You" is the most recognized song in the English language, followed by "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow". The song's base lyrics have been translated into at least 18 languages.[1], p. 17 The melody of "Happy Birthday to You" comes from the song "Good Morning to All", which was written and composed by American siblings Patty Hill and Mildred J. Hill in 1893.[2][3] Patty was a kindergarten principal in Louisville, Kentucky, developing various teaching methods at what is now the Little Loomhouse;[4] Mildred was a pianist and composer.[1], p. 7 The sisters created "Good Morning to All" as a song that would be easy to be sung by young children.[1], p. 14 The combination of melody and lyrics in "Happy Birthday to You" first appeared in print in 1912, and probably existed even earlier.[1], pp. 31–32 None of these early appearances included credits or copyright notices. The Summy Company registered for copyright in 1935, crediting authors Preston Ware Orem and Mrs. R.R. Forman.[citation needed] In 1990, Warner Chappell purchased the company owning the copyright for $15 million, with the value of "Happy Birthday" estimated at $5 million.[5] Based on the 1935 copyright registration, Warner claims that the United States copyright will not expire until 2030, and...

Happy Birthday to You Copyright

...Bobby Bandleader performed unknowingly the copyrighted “Happy Birthday to You” song in his restaurant, Bobby’s Bistro, for more than 20 years. He obviously did not know that Johnny Singstealer had the song’s copyright, along with many other people that sing the Happy Birthday song in public. When it comes to the law, it is clear that Bobby Bandleader had no right to perform the song in his restaurant without working out a deal with Johnny Singstealer, the copyright holder. Bobby Bandleader was clearly engaging in copyright infringement of the “Happy Birthday to You” song based on his unauthorized public performance without the knowledge and permission of the copyright holder, Johnny Singstealer. (Galpert, 2008) Based on the United States Code Title 17 §106, it is stated that owners of works such as musical composition, even this particular composition, have the exclusive right to perform the copyrighted work publicly. Bobby Bandleader is the offender and he should apologize and offer to pay Johnny Singstealer whatever is due or whatever his demand is as long as it is fair, reasonable, and just amount. Johnny Singstealer has the right to collect the necessary royalties or licenses fee from Bobby Bandleader since it is against the law to steal the copyright-protected works of others and perform them without pay.

Happy

...In this essay, I am going to talk about two of the many things that make me feel happy and what I think it means to be happy. The first thing that makes me happy is being surrounded by the people you love and care for, which is family. Being closer to your family makes me happy. It is always good to be around those that love you more often than being apart from them. My family almost always gets together on Sundays. We go to my grandmother’s house and spend the day with each other. I find this to be relaxing and I feel that having people that care for each other makes you a happier person. Also, when people have children they should be there for them because they will live a healthier life if their parents are in their life more often. It is also good to notice and acknowledge kids when they accomplish their goals because it will make them and yourself happier than if you just ignore them. Family is also a very important part of one’s life because they will always be there for you until you die. Whereas, a wife or significant other may not be there for you until you die or in times of need. This is because they can always leave even after years and years of being with one another. The second thing that makes me feel happy is being able to live and enjoying life. I do not really stress, the reason for it, is because there is nothing to stress about. I enjoy my life and that is what makes me happy. Another thing, is that I accomplish the goals that I set for myself. I will never...

Be Happy

...full because now I have a chance to finally write my first blog post. I'll share a few tips from my heart on being and staying happy in Jesus. * "Are any among you in trouble? They should pray..." - James 5:13 Pray; my joy begins and ends in God and I can confidently say that the joy of the Lord is truly my strength. You cannot be happy while you insist on carrying your own burdens. The Bible says that we cast our cares on the Lord. Now the way to do this is by prayer. I do not expect to be happy while my God is angry at me. So be it burdens of sin -by the way disobedience to God will snuff the joy out of you cause joy is from the Holy Spirit and He can get grieved by us when we do wrong!-, worry, anxiety, depression, name it! I will lay it at His feet and His cross and take on His yoke. I realized that if I truly want to be happy all the days of my life, then I should seek diligently to be full of all that God is. * ------------------------------------------------- "...Are any among you happy? They should sing praises." ------------------------------------------------- James 5:13 Be grateful; My heart "glows" when I appreciate someone. And it does so when am appreciated as well. Being grateful helps you appreciate and be content with what you have. A sincere thank you to God and people around you will go a long way in helping you stay happy about what you already have.

...One essential standard for living is being able to be happy. Happiness can be found in many different forms. It can be found with the purchasing of inanimate objects that better our living styles or it can be found with someone else that you associate with. The latter is the more imperative of the designs of happiness. In order to be truly happy you need to be able to understand that everything is good within your own life and that you are able to be happy with the people that are in your life and the people that influence how you live your daily life. Happiness is all of the good that someone experiences combined into one emotion. This emotion can, and usually does, bring out the best in people. For someone to be happy they need to know that everything that has happened in their past has happened for a reason and that it has happened in order for them to become a better person. Not only does it make them a better person but it also makes them realize how good they have it or can possibly have it. Although things might be hard to deal with at the moment, people need to realize that they will be able to learn from their experiences and that they will learn to take the good from them all. In the end, the hard times will help people strive for happiness. Happiness isn't free. You have to earn it and work to keep...

...Под игото (Резюме) Част първа xI. Гост Чорбаджи Марко вечеря със семейството си на двора в прохладна майска вечер. На трапезата са стопанинът, неговата майка (баба Иваница), жена му и многобройната му челяд. Чорбаджията, както обикновено, насърчава децата да се хранят или им прави забележки, като по този начин ги възпитава. Той е посвоему строг и отговорен родител, който държи на учението, добрите нрави и честността. Не-случайно, макар и необразован, Марко е училищен настоятел в Бяла черква и приема това като голяма чест. След вечеря децата се събират около баща си. Чорбаджията прави забележка на майка си, която плаши малките с турците; интересува се как е болният Асен; кара Васил да разкаже нещо от наученото в училище за Русия. Неочаквано се чува шум от падане на керемиди от оградата и в двора настъпва суматоха. Марко взема отнякъде два пищова и отива да види какво става. В обора той открива непознат човек и след като го разпитва, разбира, че е синът на негов стар приятел - дядо Манол от Видин. Младият мъж - Иван Кралича, идва от Диарбекир. Като изяснява това, чорбаджията отива да успокои семейството си. Казва им, че страхът им е напразен; не споделя с тях, че имат таен гост. В този момент започва да се хлопа на външната врата. На Марко му става ясно, че е онбашията, и тръгва направо към обора, за да скрие Иван на друго място. Но Кралича го няма. Това поражда тревога у чорбаджията. xII.
