"'Is it he, your honor? he knows as much about building a stack of corn as Mas-ther George, here. He'll only botch them, sir, if you let him go about them. "'Yes; but what can I do, Larry? He's the only man I have that I could trust them to.
An' Tommy Kilbride the baker, he's been poundin' at the dough for thirty years, an' he's no better off than I am. But me noble Dan Dillon that began wid punchin' the heads of his neighbors, see where he is to-day. But he's worthy of it, an' I'd be the last to begrudge him his luck."

"Prove that he's Arthur Dillon! Faith, an' long I'd wait for a gold mine if I had to prove I was Judy Haskell. How can any one prove themselves to be themselves, Misther Curran? Are the courts goin' crazy?" The detective explained what evidence a court would accept as proof of personality. "Well, Arthur can give that aisy enough," said she.
